Revit spot slope - Edit and Add Text Parameter

Anonymous — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 22:05:49 GMT

Hi does anyone know how to add a text parameter to the SPOT SLOPE tag?

I will insert a photo of how we want it to look.

Unfortunately, the spot slope is a dimension, and there is no way to change it outside the standard Revit options. I'm sure you saw in the instance parameters that you can add a prefix or suffix, but we always have to put a dumb text note below the tag.

If you don't want to place a simple text (as FAZIOGREG wrote), you can create an annotation symbol with one text parameter, an arrow and the label “SLOPE”. But this makes your work the same half-manual — you need to enter slopes now (but not copy-pasting a simple text "SLOPE").

I just add the symbol to the graphic legend telling them it indicates spot slope and keeping my plans clean of repeated text. Sorry it doesn't really answer your question.
