    <description>&lt;P&gt;One thing that seems pretty common is to have details and notes in a template that likely need to be updated. However, Revit doesn't have great ways of indicating this. At our firm we have started using red boxes to highlight areas of text, a special note family that is toggleable in global parameters, and Red text notes in details to indicate text that needs changing. However, this also means that teams need to change things back and delete things which isn't ideal. I was wondering if maybe there was a way to have an option in the text editor that lets you highlight things temporarily until someone changes them. For example, I hightlight a title and it turns red, but if someone clicks on it and edits it, it is normal. no need to undo a setting, change styles or anything. Essentially the&amp;nbsp; highlight has two functions.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. Make it clear where text needs review&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. Make it easy to change it without needing to worry about styling. simply clicking the highlight you can change the text (similar to placeholders in word processing software).&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>You can always code your own connector or use Dynamo for exporting as well.&lt;BR /&gt;I rewrote the Dynamo Excel add-in in Py many years back since the interop on Microsoft's side only works about 99% of the time. (Its probably on the Dynamo forums)&lt;BR /&gt;</description>
