    <description>&lt;P&gt;there is something annoying that makes many of my colleagues create a "legend" phase for just for legend purpose.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;For instance, we can tag material and layers on a wall composition , but why couldn't we dimension the overall width or even tag the typeMark of the wall?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;who use only material tag?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have no idea why we can't dimension wall and floor legends for example? we do need to mention that information.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;it would be good if these dimensions would change if the type of the same family is changed (useful for flashing schedule sketches) or if the parameter name that drives a dimension could be shown ie leg1, leg2 etc.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;True, what would be super cool is if we have the possibility to use Views instead of images with paths in schedules.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It is absolutely pathetic that Revit allows us to drop a picture of each wall type into a legend view, but then doesn't allow us to tag them so as to identify which is which.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What is the purpose of a legend in which you can't identify the types listed there?! &amp;nbsp;Seriously, is there any circumstances where it is useful to have a legend with pictures of wall types but no actual identification of each type?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Enable tags in legends - if its not there by 2018 release I'm switching to Archicad.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Revit Legends are completely unusable&amp;nbsp;in their current state. &amp;nbsp;Placing "Dumb" drafting components on a sheet that don't allow dimensioning, linework, tagging, or any editing whatsoever is contrary to everything BIM is trying to move towards.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;In our office we create special phases, sections, elevations, and plans for all of our legend components. &amp;nbsp;Thereby placing the actual 3D components into the views and having all the customization of a regular 3D component. &amp;nbsp;Especially the ability to tag and propagate through the whole model any edits to the parameters of the specific element. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It works well enough, but that doesn't change the fact that it's one of the dumbest work-arounds to something that should be inherently intelligent and usable in Revit.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;As an architect (REVIT user since 2008), I do not understand that it is not possible to add dimensions and wall type tags to&amp;nbsp; wall legends. When working on projects that are being built, we use legends to illustrate how certain objects is supposed to be built. The Revit legend drawing itself is not very detailed, and therefore it is necessary to&amp;nbsp; elaborate the illustrations for the workers at the building site etcetera, adding dimensioning and type text. Writing the type text manually might cause mistakes, because it does not automatically follow the wall parameters such as type description. Tag Arkitekter AS, where I've worked since 2009, is probably the Architects firm that has the most large Residential projects in Norway. Most of Our Projects area being built, and we use REVIT as modelling device. I hope for a rapid change in Revit legends for easier and more Professional use of REVIT in Our Projects. (Using design wall design options to create wall "legends" is not a good option. We used to do that when creating door/ window legends earlier) Thank you!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This would be an excellent improvement, and a major improvement to every revit users' workflow.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What everyone ends up doing is just putting 2d dumbtext on their legends - which is, frankly, creates a possibility for errors and change orders...&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;IMHO - anything that is a Type Parameter should be taggable in a legend. That's all we need.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;(&amp;nbsp;I've seen some crazy 'workarounds' people have come up with to remedy this lack of obvious functionality in Revit. I've seen people put 3d model text in their families, just so the text shows up in the Legend view.)&lt;/P&gt;</description>
