1. Changing the grid angle of a curtain wall system in Revit

If the curtain wall system looks like this when drawing a curtain wall system:

If you want to change the angle of the grid so that it is parallel or perpendicular to the top and bottom of the curtain wall, select the curtain wall and change the angle of the grid in the property bar. As shown below:

After changing the desired angle, the curtain wall will look like the picture below:

2. How to quickly change volume outline in Revit

When we first encountered this volume editing software, we often did not know the position of the X work plane and the plane to be edited in 3D.

As shown in Figure 1, when editing the line of the model, we were unable to connect all the lines butt to form a closed loop.

At this time, we can click on the "offset" line to change it to the selected color, click on the main menu below the drawing panel, and select the plane where the other three lines are located, as shown in the figure. 2. At this time, on this line, you can return to where it should be.

Similarly, by clicking on the contour line we are editing, we can clearly see the surface to be generated, as shown in Figure 3, and the surface can also be "moved" by the above method

There is a "body" command next to the body. By clicking, we can see the currently edited work surface. The work plane is selected, we can use this command to find the plane we need, as shown in Figure 4.
