View Template tweaks in Revit 2013

You can now set the default scale for new views.  So when you cut a section, it automatically defaults to whatever scale you want.  Here's how to enable it.....

As an example we'll use a section cut, but this will work for any view such as plans, 3D, etc.

Open up a section view > EDIT TYPE > > Identity Data >  New views are dependent on template > CHECK THIS BOX

Be Aware, anything that is defined in the view template will not be changeable when you check this box.

Above it you will see View Template applied to new views, the value listed to the right will be the default view template.  Set this as you would like and its done

You can even duplicate these views, so that you have more than one option.  See this video for more details.
