Generally AutoCAD is set up so that different things display as different colours on the screen, but still print black.
However Revit prints what you see, so generally everything is black in a Revit view.
Sometimes it is nice to have different things a different colour so it is easier to work out what is what.
The way to do it in Revit is to have your own personal working views, and use Visibility/Graphic Overrides with Filters to make things different colours.
Then save a View Template so you can apply the same settings to other personal views you create.
That way you won't disrupt printing, or the way other people want to work.
CREATE A PERSONAL VIEW
First create a personal view.
Duplicate an existing similar view, rename it using the correct protocol:
X-yourintials_viewname
e.g.
X-AMC_Level 3
Change any view parameters to identify the view as a working view.
(e.g. set Purpose.VW to working)
CREATE FILTERS
Create filters that will capture the things you want to colour.
View tab, Graphics tile, Filters button.
Keep filters simple. Use category only filters where possible (i.e. Tick one category, Filter Rules set to none).
e.g.
Doors
Furniture
Specialist Equipment
APPLY VISIBILITY/GRAPHICS OVERRIDES TO FILTERS
Make sure you are in your personal view.
View tab, Graphics tile, Visibility/Graphics Overrides button, Filters tab.
Hit the Add button to add filters.
Against each filter change the Projection/surface Lines and Cut Lines to be what you want.
If you need to add new filters hit the Edit/New button.
SAVE A PERSONAL VIEW TEMPLATE
Once you have your view looking the way you want create a View Template.
View tab, Graphics tile, View Templates button, Create Template from Current View command.
Name it using standard protocol:
X-yourintials_viewname
e.g.
X-AMC_coloured
In the View Template dialog box under Include column UNTICK all parameters except for:
V/G Overrides Model
V/G Overrides Annotation
(You can leave others ticked if you need to, but generally you only want to change graphic overrides).
APPLY YOUR VIEW TEMPLATE TO ANOTHER VIEW.
Create or go to another one of your personal views.
View tab, Graphics tile, View Templates button, Apply Template to Current View command.
If the View Template you created is not listed, from the drop down list under Show Type: select <all>.
