    Default Elevation Views in Families

    I'm having trouble editing a family due to the elevation views. This is an upper corner cabinet and I need to edit the face of this. I am unable to change the elevation view, currently there are only left, right, front and back elevations. How do I add more Elevation views in this family. Thanks!

    Are you using Revit?

    This may be a dumb question but - what other elevation views are there?

    yes, I'm using Revit, and the other elevation would in this case be a front panel(there are 5 sides- basically a pentagon).

    Cool. I'm going to move this post from the New User's Forum to this one, as I believe it will be better served here. Thanks!
