Hello,

I am currently working on a large residential project with over 50 doors, most are varying in some way. Aswell as over 150 windows again varying in many ways.

I have been using the schedules existing in revit, which as a schedule does, creates long lists of text. As an architect and thinking of the builders too, we work visually and want to see the object/elevation at the same time - not having to flick to other pages for the visual element.

In previous projects at other firms it is agreed in the office that the door/window information is written directly below the elevation which in turn displays all the visual components.

Therefore being new to revit, My question is can I create a family or similar tool which will be live and display the same information that appears in the schedule, individually for each door/window that can be placed directly below the elevation?

Any help would be good, Thanks in advance.

I just had a thought that one way to accomplish the above would be if I could create individual schedules for each door/window and format the feilds down the page instead of across the top?? is this possible, I had a play in the edit schedule properties but could not quite get there.

You could create a "tag" that reads the same information that a door schedule would read.

That is agood idea, Im quite new and will have to go thru the tuts do make tags. but if the door already has a tag which is linked live between the schedule and tag, Will making a new tag for the information interfer with the existing tag displaying on the door?

No, you can have multiple tags. 

 

Questions like this are easily discovered on your own.  Simple put two room tags in the same room - one with the name only and one with the name and area.....
