Hi all,

I am really a newbie here, so i really need help on this, some tabs are missing in my Project broswer, i cannot find the elevations tab "East,west, north & south".

What can I do to have a complete project broswer?

From now I cannot start a drawing because of missing tabs,

Thanks,

Hope someone will help me,

Gabby

They may have been deleted, you could always recreate the view that you need. Thats the beauty of revit. If you havn't even started the drawing, you just havnt put any views in yet, so just add the elevations that you want.

quick explanation, your browser shows what type of views you curently have in the project... now since there are no elevation views you know that you dont have any elevation views in project. fix this by chosing the view tab on the ribbon then chose elevation.  note that this should be performed with a floorplan open.

Thank you Galen & thetabest, I will follow your instructions, and try to solve this problem.

However, I am again encountering problem, I dont see a "workset" tab & "design option" tab in my "Visibility/graphic overrides" dialog box,

I am starting to feel that I am missing some addins in my revit, = (

Thanks again,

those are not visible because you are looking in wrong place... first, worksets ned to be created first. to do so, assuming 2w010 and later, there is a worksets command, located at botom of screen, or search for enabling worksets in help file.   next, design options are controlled vie specific, meaning they are unique to each view.  find the controls in view properties. with as new as you seem, i sugest avoiding design options until you are more comfortable with app.  they require some interesting work arounds.  if you press f1 in revit it will open help files, search for each thing as you caled it and you wil find more info.  or i

Thanks thetabest,

I somehow confirmed that some settings where missing due to uncomplete istallation, however I manage to start a drawing now, with a help from a friend who visited me at home.

I am starting to appreciate the beauty of Revit Architecture,

Hope to hear more of guiding comments here in revit city,

Thanks again,
