Issue with View Title Family Referencing Incorrect Sheet Numbers

Hi,

We are encountering an issue with our standard View Title family in Autodesk Revit. When applied to an elevation view-port, the View Title is configured to reference the sheet number of the associated plan.

This works as intended when the plan’s drawing number is 4 digits or fewer. However, if the plan’s drawing number exceeds 4 digits, the reference sheet label incorrectly reports a different sheet number.

This behaviour is affecting the accuracy of our documentation and alignment with our practice standards. Could you please investigate this issue and advise on a resolution?

Afaict from your query and screen snapshot, you are not doing anything programmatically yourself using the Revit API, just using the standard Revit user interface. In that case, unfortunately, this is not the best place to ask such a question. Please note that this discussion forum is dedicated to programming Revit using the Revit API. You will probably get more optimal answers to a question like yours relating to product setup, optimisation, usage, best practices and other end-user support issues in one of the non-API Revit product support discussion forums instead:

Go to you sheet 30416 and find the callout for that elevation. Select it and hide it in that view.

The issue is that when you changed your sheet number from 6031 to 60319 it now thinks the earliest sheet the callout is appearing is on sheet 30416 since that number is less than 60319.

 

You can also use the properties in the elevation to narrow down the number of views the callout appears in by using "hide in scales courser than".

Section and plan detail view types have a parameter called show in and you can select parent view only.
