To shorten the title line (the horizontal line below the view name) in Revit, you need to manipulate the viewport's controls directly on the sheet.
Here is the straightforward method:
Adjusting the View Title Line
The length of the horizontal line under a view title on a sheet is controlled by adjusting the viewport itself.
Here's how to do it:
- Select the Viewport: Navigate to the sheet where your view is placed. Click on the view itself to select its viewport. You will see a bounding box around the view.
- Locate Drag Controls: Zoom in closely on the view title area until you can clearly see the blue drag controls. These controls typically appear at the end of the horizontal line.
- Drag the Controls: Click and drag the blue controls horizontally.
- Dragging the control inward towards the title will shorten the horizontal line.
- Dragging the control outward away from the title will lengthen the horizontal line.
By dragging these controls, you can customize the exact length of the title line to fit your sheet layout requirements.
Understanding the Viewport
The view title and its associated line are part of the viewport element placed on the sheet. Adjusting the line is a property tied to how the viewport is represented.
- Viewport: Represents the window into your model or view placed on a sheet.
- View Title: Displays the view name, scale, and detail number.
- Horizontal Line: A graphical element that can be adjusted via the viewport controls.
Using this simple drag function allows for quick and precise adjustments directly on your sheet view.
