In a revit drawing list, is it possible to modify its properties so that you can have certain drawing sheets grouped together with a corresponding heading above it? But all in the one drawing list? For example: If you had a set of sheets that were related to the "Civil Works" of the project, you would want them grouped together at the top of the drawing list with a heading above stating CIVIL WORKS. Then underneath that, you had a set of sheets which related to the hydraulics of the building, similarly with a heading above it. I have checked all the available properties for the drawing list, including the sheet properties and their visibility in the drawing list. I have attached an example of what I am trying to explain, however it is simply 2D lines and text.

We use mutiple schedules filtered and tilted for each category and placed one above the other.

Is it possible to do it in the one schedule though? If not, what types of schedules would you use in order to create the different sections?

Under Sorting/Grouping sse Sorting Order. Then for each discipline assign them a number. 1, 2, 3. Then the schedule will first sort by sorting order then by sheet number.

Actually, If you - add a category parameter to your sheets,
- you can sort by that category, then sheet number,
- turn header on for that category
- and hide this column.
And get something like I've shown.

I've typically used a single schedule for each Discipline, filtering it for that discipline by the first letter of the sheet number, since electrical used 'E', architectural used 'A', etc. I created a schedule for each discipline, checked the inlcude linked files, placed on my index sheet, and only had to worry about adjusting the schedules whenever anyone added new sheets. If you do it the way WWWHub suggests, just remember that the parameter which you are using to create new headers MUST be filled in for EACH sheet, including any sheets from consultants, or linked sheets also! So if you don't start this off early on, then you have to go back and fill in, plus if you are the architect, you have to ensure that your consultants properly fill out and use the shared parameter that you give them... In other words, it is possible, but beware of the management nightmare it could become.
