In Revit 2023, my version has no updates installed.

When I locked a viewport, I am no longer able to select it then un-lock it, very inconvient.

The only ways to work around are:

1. Go to each view, such as Floor_Plan_ New, make changes.

2. Delete that view from the sheet, then re-insert onto that sheet, which needs to re-position it and set it up properly.

Please help!

Thanks!

Are you able to select anything that has been pinned or is it just viewports you cannot select after they are pinned?

Make sure the "Select Pinned Elements" is turned on. Little orange pin icon in the bottom right corner of the revit window.

Hi WWHub,

Thanks!

Yes, I went through that but it didn't provide the solution.

Hi Marmiketin1,

Thanks!

That's it, I have worked on Revit since 2007, but never noticed that.

Thanks again!
