How to realign UV grid when using "Divide Surface" or curtain wall systems

Raylionn — Sat, 16 Jan 2021 11:41:40 GMT

My problem is shown in the attached screenshot. Whenever I use Divide Surface or create a curtain wall system, the U and V grid is aligned to the top edge. I have tried to google for everything I could think of and tried everything I could in Revit, but there seems to be no way to realign this. I know that I can rotate the U and V orientation, but I want it to be perfectly aligned with the ground. I'm new to Revit so sorry if this is actually super easy, but please, if anyone knows how to do this, I would be most grateful for your help.

In Edit Mode of Mass:

use Align Tool
select , first the horizontal Face and then the Grid line
the same with the vertical Grid

Thank you so much, I had a feeling it was actually very easy. As I said I'm still new to Revit and getting used to what works with what. Have a great day.

Yes, but if you stretch an edge, the alignment does not update, even if locked. At least not in my environment.
