Autodesk Revit 2015: Changing View References

The ability to swap an existing view reference with a new one was a long standing request that was finally addressed in Revit 2015. In previous versions of Revit, reference views already in place could not be changed without deleting and recreating the view. This has changed: simply select the view in plan, and select a different view reference from the drop-down list displayed in the Options Bar. The feature works with every view type, including detail view, drafting views, plan, elevations, and sections. Watch this video for more information.
