Hello everyone. In this lecture, we are talking about key shortcut. The key shortcut is very important to reduce your time when you are working. In this movie, I want to talk about in executing on alternating command using the keyboard shortcuts. So we were talking about in the previous movie, you can go to the ribbon, you can kick out various buttons like this, when you go to the architecture tab, if you want the world command, you will go to the wall command and kick it. Do execute command, but in some cases can be easier to actually to use from your keyboard.
If you use that keyboard, that will be very easy. And many of the commands in Revit actually have keyboard shortcuts. I want to show you how you can learn Revit shortcut, so the easiest way Pay attention to tooltips that appear on your movie over one of the commands that is ribbon. For example, when I go to the wall command, you can see that the wall command shortcut that is why that are shown here and below that the description of this wall that are also shown, when you go to the command, the same thing, the walcker the do command that shortcut that is dia and there is description that is here, the description is also shown and go to the window that is window, the shortcut is w n and the same thing. So when you go to the documents suppose I select, just go to the escape button, if you are any if you have in any command, so you just press escape two to three times so you are out of the command.
Then, if you want to use door command with keyboard shortcuts, just press just type or a press the blue sorry d r. When you press the R, you can see the command that is in your properties panel. If you want to change this dough, you can go here, change the door that you want. Suppose you want that is why Gary's door, you want to get his door. So change it to split it here. This is your garage door fight trying to be noted here. When you press do this go to the wall.
On the surface of wall The door is appear. So you have to notice that where you want to Use the dough, you can select the position of the note. Suppose this is my position of my dog that is six feet from this, this center of that wall. Okay? And seven feet eight inch, the center of this one. So I can press it down here, okay, if if the position is not right, we can go to this air if you if you want five fit from this site, we can type five fit, so don't shift according to your own position.
So this is the very important features fine. So I will back to the work right now that is our do command. So you can see that this is the document that will appear. Okay, just press escape two or three times to go to the out of the command. Fine. If you want a wall command, the shortcut of all command that is the blue a Fine, you can see here, basic wall stone brick, that is our wall that is shown here.
If you want to change this wall so you can change it. I don't want to change right now so I can press escape. Okay, when you want to create a wall you can go here if you want to create a wall here, you can see that the face of this wall is not at the same time, but I'm I'm talking about my shortcut, so I'm not worried about it. So I can just create a wall a little bit fine. Okay, so this is just press Escape to time to out on the command this hour. Fine.
We can create a window and now I've created what? Fight so one thing notice here first I use the command the second I use the curl command. Fine. Now pay attention what I'm saying because this is this is the most most important thing and most of the guys, they are creating a mistake to use the command the shortcut command, what what they do the type w A, find the type w A, the wall command is PL then after they type enter command, when you go to the Enter command, the do command in shorts, but I want the world command. So, this is very important that when you press the shortcut suppose when you you press the shortcut w A. So after that, don't ever press the Enter if you press Enter, you go to the previous command, I understand right now, fine.
One more time, we'll we'll do that. Suppose we want the DOE command type Dr. That is the DOE command. If you press enter, it will go to the wall command, but I want the do command. So don't press the Enter if you want the previous command. So suppose you were you just first created over here, and then you want a wall. So just press enter, the world command will appear fine.
So this is the most easiest way, but it takes a little bit time to practice so that you can understand more. So this is the shortcut of all and Oh come on. Now, we are talking about the very important feature that we seen that When you go to the wall command, there is shortcut. When you go to the do command, there's also shortcut. When you go to the window command, there is also a shortcut. When you go to the column command, the column command also have a shortcut.
But when you go to the ceiling command, there is no shortcut for the ceiling command. So when we so when we ever don't have a shortcut command, so what we have to do, we can create a shortcut command. Okay, so how we can create a shortcut command in Revit most of the command have shortcut but there are a few commands that don't have a shortcut, just suppose them there is no shortcut for them. When you go first here, there is no shortcut for stairs. So if you have a lots of time of this command use of this command. So what you can do is take a time to go to the ribbon command.
And every time this click it and take into the command, so what we have to do, you can modify it also So how it will be done, go to the View tab. After that, go to the user interface. When you go to the user interface, you can see that there is an option at the below at the last corner, this is keyboard shortcut. And keyboard shortcut is already have gears, keyboard shortcut, okay? So when you place k s, or you can click it if they don't have a keyboard shortcuts, so we don't have any shortcuts if there is any keyboard shortcuts suppose the reference plan there is Rp. And here that is aligned dimension that is di, the alt keyboard shortcut that is written here.
Here you can see that the Properties panel have three keyboard shortcuts. So here, it will be it will be happen that we can use the wonderful For three sort of three shortcuts, keyboard shortcuts, so it is also important here. So here we have a keyboard shortcuts. And when you go to the outside this command after cancel it, you can see that in the roof. There is no shortcuts in the roof. In the roof command, there is no shortcuts.
How can we create that shortcut? So we'll go to the same to the view panel. Go to the user interface, keyboard shortcuts, go to the roof command. If we don't find it, then you can type roof command here roof by floor paint, you can select it or you can roof by face you can select it or you can sign here od f f okay. Or you can assign here there is a shortcut that is RFA for the roof by face. So select Okay fine.
Now, when you type r f, so you can see basic roof command that is created on my screen. So this is one of the way to create or modify shortcuts, if you will have a lots of use in your model. So you can create it and you can use it in your model. So, here, it is very important to use the keyboard shortcut in this lecture. This is most important that when you use that shortcut key, you always take care about that you don't press Enter after using this keyboard shortcuts, you will always have you have to use the alphabets for the keyboard shortcuts and that are very essential to us. In your model, and that is very important to use in your model.
So I hope this lectures will help you to work fastly to use some more keyboard shortcuts. And one more thing I want to add right at right at the end of the lecture, that if you want the list of the keyboard side keyboard shortcuts are the so where you have to go, you can go for the view, and the user interface, the same thing, the keyboard, and here the option that is export, you can export it and you can take a printout of this and you can learn your keyboard shortcuts, if you want to learn from them, or you want to learn from here also, it's already written that is here when you go to the one command the keyboard shortcut is always appears on your skin so you can learn by this way also. So I prefer to learn by this only I don't want anything and print out or export was an off keyboard shortcuts.
So this is the all about the keyboard shortcuts. Thank you very much for watching this
