The Autodesk Revit user interface comprises several screens, panels, and toolbars that facilitate project organization. For example, the Project Browser has places for structural plans, 3D views, and elevations. The Project Browser also contains more complicated aspects of Building Information Modeling (BIM) that include legends, schedules, quantities, and sheets. Revit software’s UI also has a Quick Access toolbar at the very top of the ribbon, a status bar in the lower-left corner, visibility controls, and a comment area that shows you where you are in the model.

Tool in one of the Tabs allows you to add items to the
QAT. Customize your QAT with Tools that you find yourself using
consistently.
 Tabs – Group Tools together based on their functionality within
Revit. The Tabs are different in all flavors of Revit (Arch, MEP and
Struct) because of different functions, but some
like Home, Manage, Collaborate and View are consistent in all.
Some Add-Ins to Revit will also add additional Tabs to the interface.
 Contextual Tab – Contextual Modify Tabs are contextually revealed
as an addition to the Modify Tab when specific elements are
selected or when certain Tools are engaged. Contextual Tabs turn
green in color.
 InfoCenter – This is where you can access the online Revit WikiHelp
files to search for assistance on a topic. You can also access the
SubscriptionCenter and Communications Center from the
InfoCenter.
 Ribbon – The Ribbon contains all of the Tools for designing and
documenting a project in Revit. It consists of Tabs, Panels and
Tools. Clicking the up-facing arrow at the end of the Tabs allows
you to minimize the Ribbon to just Tabs, Panel Titles or Panel Buttons.
