How can I duplicate a Revision name in sheet issue/ revision box

Khashayar.Saffarifardkhouzani — Mon, 13 Feb 2023 05:35:38 GMT

I am looking for a way to duplicate the revision name in revision box ( for instance having 2 Rev A with different description for each and then allocate each to a specific page. Generally Revit doesn't let to use a number or alphabet that has been used before .

Hi @Khashayar.Saffarifardkhouzani

i think what you are looking for is this option "Per Sheet" while setting your Revisions.

Create two different custom lettering systems so that you can have the same revision number and revision description, but on different systems.

It sounds like you might be wanting to use the description to describe the changes somehow? That's not the way revision schedules should work. Revision 2A should have the same description throughout the project. Any additional descriptions should go with the accompanying documentation.
