3D Plan View is Tiny

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello!  I am working with Autodesk Revit 2021.  I am a graduate student and my research project involves modeling a 2 story single family home.  I noticed a few weeks ago that when I opened the 3D view, it was very small and far away.   I thought it was probably a setting/zoom/view issue but I have not had luck resolving it.  The other plan views open normally.  I am hoping to resolve this issue and not start over again.  I should note that the model is otherwise done and I am about to graduate in 4 weeks!  Any ideas would be much appreciated.  Thank you.

Do you have any CAD link in your project? Try checking it off and see if you able to zoom into your 3d view.

Once you done that, you may want to turn on the crop view and crop it to your 3d. That way your view won't zoom extent when you have object beyond your 3d model.

Sounds like you have an element or two far, far away from the main model. Maybe a CAD Import?  Do a Crossing Window Selection  of all the "empty" space around the Main Model and see if it picks up anything.

Thank you. I ended up looking at all the elements to see if they were located far away. It seems like one of my roof openings was unbounded... or something. Anyways, when I removed it the 3D plan view went back to normal. Really appreciate the help.
