Revit - LEGEND COMPONENT VIEWS IN LEGENDS

Can we have a few more "View" options in the Legends?

 

When adding a Legend Component, there are a few views available for that component, depending on the Family Type of that Legend Component, such as Front View, Back View, Left View, Right View, Plan View. But there is no 3D View available. Can we perhaps get a 3D View option added to the Views List for ALL Legend Components. This will assist especially if one is adding Furniture, Casework, Generic Model, etc.

 

With Legend Components relating to System Families, these are currently limited to Plan or Section Views, or both.  A 3D View option for this could allow the user to input a sample Host Length, Width or Height, where applicable, when placed, by selecting the 3D Legend Component and inputting these values in the Properties menu.

 

This is a nice to have, as it helps in adding a 3D view of the component in a Legend View for presentation or even construction/documentation/scheduling purposes, without having to generate a 3D View, crop and hide elements from that view. This way it is a clean and neat view representation.

When adding a Legend component, can we rescale or rotate that particular component?
