| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| View Scale | Specifies the scale of the view. When you select Custom, you can edit the Scale Value property. |
| Scale Value 1: | Specifies a ratio derived from the view scale. For example, if the view scale is 1:100, the scale value is the ratio of 100/1 or 100. You can edit this value when you select Custom for the View Scale property. |
| Display Model | Hides the model in detail view. The Normal setting displays all elements normally. It is intended for all non-detail views. The Do Not Display setting shows only detail-view–specific elements. These elements include lines, regions, dimensions, text, and symbols. Elements in the model do not display. The Halftone setting displays all detail-view–specific elements normally, while model elements display in halftone. You can use the halftone model elements as references for tracing lines, dimensioning, and aligning. (See Halftone/Underlay.) |
| Detail Level | Applies the detail level setting to the view. See Detail Level. |
| V/G Overrides Model | Defines visibility/graphics overrides for model categories. See GUID-62EE20DA-E773-4049-B90C-38EAC5FE1814.htm#WS46B90C3CB2C58CAD922804FC7FA4315F-7F7D. |
| V/G Overrides Annotation | Defines visibility/graphics overrides for annotation categories. See GUID-62EE20DA-E773-4049-B90C-38EAC5FE1814.htm#WS46B90C3CB2C58CAD922804FC7FA4315F-7F7D. |
| V/G Overrides Import | Click Edit to view and modify visibility options for imported categories. See GUID-62EE20DA-E773-4049-B90C-38EAC5FE1814.htm#WS46B90C3CB2C58CAD922804FC7FA4315F-7F7D. |

| V/G Overrides Worksets | Defines visibility/graphics overrides for worksets. |
| V/G Overrides Design Options | Defines visibility/graphics overrides for design options. See Checking the Design Option Settings for a View. |
| Model Display | Defines model display options for surfaces (visual styles such as wireframe, hidden line, and so on), transparency, and silhouettes. See Changing the Graphics of a View. |
| Shadows | Defines shadow settings for views. See Changing the Graphics of a View. |
| Lighting | Defines lighting settings, including the lighting scheme, sun setting, artificial lights, and the amounts of sun, ambient light, and shadows. See Changing the Graphics of a View. |
| Photographic Exposure | For 3D views, defines exposure settings for rendering an image. |
| Background | For 3D views, specifies the background to display, including a sky, gradient colors, or an image. |
| Far Clipping | For elevations and sections, specify far clip plane settings. See Far Clip Plane. |
| Underlay Orientation | For floor plans and reflected ceiling plans that use an underlay, specifies whether the underlay displays the corresponding floor plan or reflected ceiling plan. For example, for a reflected ceiling plan, you can display the corresponding floor plan as an underlay to assist with the placement of lighting fixtures. |
| View Range | Defines the view range for plan views. See View Range. |
| Orientation | Orients the project to Project North or True North. See Rotating Project North and Rotating a View to True North. |
| Phase Filter | Applies the phase properties to the view. See http://beehive.autodesk.com/community/service/rest/cloudhelp/resource/cloudhelpchannel/guidcrossbook/jsonp?v=B3&p=VASARI&l=ENU&guid=GUID-DB104358-4D5A-494E-ACAE-BB8B4E72E572. |
| Discipline | Determines the visibility of non-bearing walls and discipline specific annotation symbols. |
| Color Scheme Location | Specifies whether a color scheme is applied to the background or the foreground. For an example, see Applying a Color Scheme. |
| Color Scheme |
Select an existing color scheme, or create a new one. |
| Depth Clipping | Specifies depth clip plane settings for plan views. See http://beehive.autodesk.com/community/service/rest/cloudhelp/resource/cloudhelpchannel/guidcrossbook/jsonp?v=B3&p=VASARI&l=ENU&guid=GUID-3F909685-0406-49CA-A22F-D14946B6AAA6. |
