Revit Tip: Using Spacebar to Rotate Elements

March 18, 2020 by Edwin Prakoso Leave a Comment

Spacebar is a common shortcut key for Revit users. Many of us know that we can press the spacebar to rotate an element during placement.

However, many of us don’t realize that we can also use it to modify existing elements. You can select one or multiple elements then press the spacebar to rotate them.

And the great thing about it is, the rotation is on each element base point. Which can’t be done by using Revit rotate tool.

However, the rotation angle is limited to 90 degrees. But it is sufficient for most cases.

See the video for using the spacebar shortcut below.
