How do I adjust the view window in an elevation view?

How do I adjust the view window in an elevation view? In Revit, I can highlight the window and expand it or change the viewport so when I am in that elevation, I can see the whole drawing or cut off part of it to suit what I am doing. I am working on a museum and the North elevation appears to be cut off on the right. I adjusted the position of an element and I can't see the end of the building to see where I moved the element, so I think the view must be limited by the view port on that end.
Am I right and if so, how do I adjust the viewport?

This is one feature of Revit that I would love to see in ArchiCAD (maybe in 13?). To adjust limits the section or elevation you have to select it in plan view and stretch/offset the horizontal extents and depth settings. The vertical extents are entered numerically in the Info Box or Settings Dialog.
