Hello,
As a project requirement, I must have the symbol | separating the text in my drawing title/sheet name field on my titleblock family. When entering that symbol I get the error message
Name cannot contain any of the following characters:
\ : { } [ ] | ; < > ? ` ~
or any of the non-printable characters.
Why? When on normal text fields they can be used? Is there a way around this?
thanks in advance,
Andy

Depending on how your workflow is. For example you could consider to make the | part of your title block.
Basically fill in the drawing title and sheet name (without the | ). One parameter you right align, the other you left align next to the | on the sheet.
Or instead of using the default parameters create a new (shared) parameter where you can use the |.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.
Depending on the font used, there may be an alternate character that you can use, instead. For instance, in the Arial font, there is another "vertical line" character that might work for you. See image below.
This is not resolved. The problem here for the structural side is it varied some elements in terms of depth and width. You can't rename those characters in type properties to achieve your beam, column, & wall marking, etc. But the only I can do here to achieve my marking is to mask it with text.
