• If in case users had to trim an item using Revit 2014, they had to specifically select that item for trimming. Though the multiple Trim/Extend tool was utilized by users for this purpose but they still had to deal individually with an item for making adjustments to it in terms of trimming it.
• But a totally new mechanism has been included in Revit 2015 for doing this task, wherein multiple elements can be selected with the assistance of a window which require trimming.
• When it comes to referring 2D details, Revit 2015 greatly helps its users with this by allowing them to use section and elevation tools and this was not that convenient in the previous versions of Revit.
• Apart from this improvements have also been made in the implementation of Revision clouds.
