Create a Walkthrough

Create a walkthrough path in a plan, an elevation, a section, or a 3D view.
  1. Open a view in which to place the walkthrough path.
    Tip: In general, it's easier to begin creating a walkthrough in a plan view, but you can also create a walkthrough in elevation, section or 3D views. During the process, open different views to help accurately position the path and cameras. To see all open views at the same time, click View menu  Windows panel   Tile Views.
  2. Click View tabCreate panel3D View drop-down (Walkthrough).
  3. To create a walkthrough as an orthographic 3D view, clear the Perspective check box on the Options Bar. Select a view scale for the 3D view.
    Note: Options Bar controls do not display when the perspective view is active.
  4. Place a key frame:
    1. Position the cursor in a view and click to place a key frame.
    2. Move the cursor in the desired direction to draw the path.
    In a plan view, vary the height of the path and camera by offsetting it from a selected level. Select a level in the From drop-down list, then enter a height in the Offset text box. For example, use these settings to create the effect of the camera going up or down stairs.
  5. Continue placing key frames to define the walkthrough path.
    You can place key frames anywhere, but you cannot change their position while creating the path. Edit the key frames after you finish the path.
  6. To complete the walkthrough, do one of the following:
    • Click Finish Walkthrough.
    • Double-click to end the path.
    • Press Esc.
Revit creates a walkthrough view under the Walkthroughs branch of the Project Browser and assigns it the name Walkthrough 1. You can rename the walkthrough.
