Revit Bug Fix - Multiple View/Sheet Selection in Project Browser

This is something that has been driving me nuts and finally a solution.

For some reason, all of a sudden my Revit started to act a bit funny, when I tried to select multiple views or sheets in my project browser and change a parameter, it would only change 1 View or Sheet, not the entire selection. This means that to change a parameter for multiple views or sheets I could take a very long time on a big project to go down one by one. Not Happy!

This had to be a Graphics problem as it worked on other PC’s, so with a bit of experimentation a very unusual solution!!!

It is to do with your Desktop Theme!

Select the Windows Control Panel.

Select Display…

 Select Personalization….(at the bottom of the dialogue box)

Change it to the ‘Windows 7 Basic’ Theme….

You might have to Reboot your computer for this to take effect, but next time you are using Revit it will allow you to use your Project Browser properly (or as it is supposed to work).

(Another way to access these settings is to right-click on your desktop, and select Personalize)

Happy Days!
