Is it possible to move the View Title on a sheet without moving the view?
Quite often it is in the way when you want to squeeze a view onto a sheet, and also to tidy the left alignment of the title up with the actual drawing.

Hover over the view title bubble where it intersects the line and tab through until you see the blue dot at the interesection. You can pull that dot around and t will just drag the title, not the view.

Don't you just love Revit?!

You can also select the View Title instead of the Viewport by simply tabbing before you select anything. Hover over the View Title and Viewport with your mouse. Initially you will see the whole Viewport prehighlight but if you press TAB, then the View Title will prehighlight. You can then select the View Title and move it as a whole.

Thanks. I should have realised that that is how it was done, just like selecting anything in Revit, using the TAB will get you to an object's sub-objects.

Yeah, its all about the Tab key with revit. When I teach revit, we spend the first fifteen minutes or so of each class doing Tab calisthenics--everyone takes a seat, puts a finger on the tab key and we all start hitting it. over and over and over again. I've seen some people hold the button down, causing the tab cycle to run its course in a maniacal fashion. Those are the troubled ones, and I make then do an extra 20 minutes of tab training at the end of class.
