Settings

The settings page allows you to change how the plugin will create a 3D view when using the Zoom function.

• Keep the 3D view orthographic. This option will force the Revit 3D view to be orthographic even if the corresponding viewpoint has been created with a perspective view.
• Create a new view of every issue. Instead of reusing the same 3D view each time you use the Zoom function, this option will create a new 3D view for every issue each time you use the Zoom function.
• 3D view name suffix. This text will be added to the name of the 3D view created when using the Zoom function.
