Hi guys, I am new here and have been on revit for almost 2 months now. I was wondering if there is a compiled list of keyboard shortcuts out there? I just learned 'VV' and 'VH' and am craving more =) I'll continue searching and edit if I find anything. Thanks

EDIT: Refined my search and found em, ssory for the extraneous post.

Check out C:\Program Files\Autodesk Revit Building 8.1\Program\KeyboardShortcuts.txt on your hard drive.

I wrote out a list of the standard ones as a word document here (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=25028). Worth reading the rest of the thread too.

I've just been working through setting up some standard ones for our office.

You probably figured out by now that you can edit the text file located in C:\Program Files\Autodesk Revit Building 8.1\Program\KeyboardShortcuts.txt.

Here is my text file if you want, and the word documents that go with it. Obviously your preference for whcih shortcute you use depends on what kind of work you are doing. We have tried to get a balance between edit commands, tools, drafting tools and modelling commands.

enjoy! =)
