SAT Standard ACIS Text. The file format for ACIS , a solid modeling technology that is supported by many
CAD applications.
Revit Architecture can import and export SAT files. See Importing ACIS Objects on page 1311 and Exporting
to SAT on page 1277.
scale The proportional system used to represent objects in a drawing.
In Revit Architecture, you can assign a different scale to each view. See View Scale on page 194.
Metric view scale
schedule A tabular display of information.
In Revit Architecture, a schedule is extracted from the properties of elements in a project. It is displayed in
a schedule view. Using Revit Architecture, you can create many types of schedules, including quantities,
material takeoffs, annotation schedules, revision schedules, view lists, and drawing lists.
See Schedule Views on page 124.
scope box A user interface mechanism that controls the visibility of datum planes (levels, reference lines,
and grids) in views.
When you add grids, levels, and reference lines to a project, they may display in more views than desired.
For example, when you add grid lines to a plan view, the grid lines display in all plan views of the model.
To limit the appearance of datum planes to certain views, use a scope box.
See Controlling Visibility of Datums Using Scope Boxes on page 1053.
