Simultaneous panning and zooming in several plan views

[Erik_Lundgren]

Is there a way to simultaneous pan and zoom in two or more plan views? I am currently workning on an apartment building with several different floors/levels. When I need to coordinate the consecuences of several shafts from the lowest of the two underground levels to the ground floor, I have to pan and zoom in three different views all the time, when I try different locations and dimensions of the shafts.

Scope boxes is a suboptimal solution in this situation. It would be a lot easier to be able to simultaneous pan and zoom in two or more plan views, scope boxes is not even close to beeing flexible/spontanious enough.

it's already in Idea Forum? thanks

Well... I think you might be onto something, using scope boxes in terms of coördination. Other then that.. maybe you have a use for saving views from 3D steering wheel and/or perhaps you have a use for design options also ("when I try different locations etc.")...

...apparently you might be able to use the PyRevit plugin as mentioned in the above link provided by @ennujozlagam. Never used that function and don't have it installed here though, you'd have to check yourself 🙂

The post you are referring to was unfortunately not noticed by enough Revit users, so it got archived. I am now trying to renew the topic and hopefully more Revit users will see it now and add more reactions and replies, so that it gets the much needed attention from Autodesk's Revit developers.

This needs to be resolved by Autodesk as soon as possible. I have been wondering about why this is not possible in such an advanced program as Revit, when you quite easily can do the corresponding in for example Microsoft Word. It takes a lot of unnecessary time and effort to pan and zoom in two or more open plan views all the time, when you need to move around an zoom in on different locations on several plan views all the time.

This plugin can sync, different views with an equal pan, zoom and 3Drotate configurations:

@alan_eu nice, except apparently it is not supported anymore, this one seems promising though (from comment section): 3DSync | Revit | Autodesk App Store

Seems nice!

Just careful about use many open tabs, it should use too much GPU, RAM and CPU stuff 🙂

@alan_eu thanks, going to look into this one myself. Seems quite useful. 🙂

LOL. Aren't you a haughty one?
