Hi all,

 

Within the project browser, the sheet names always shows the same 2 parameters; SheetNumber - SheetName.

 

Is it possible to change what text is displayed in the project browser?

what if I wanted the project browser to display other parameters, for example:

Discipline - CurrentRevision ?

DrawnBy - CheckedBy ?

 

I know you can change the order and categories and yada yada in the browser organisation - that's not what I'm asking:

you can create shared parameters for each thing you want to sort by, then create project parameters using the shared parameters you created. assign the parameters to Sheet or View category depending on where your sorting. the parameter will show up in the project browser sorting options.

But browser organization is exactly what you are asking about. That is where the sheet number and name belong in the browser organization.

 

How about you show us how you would your browser organization to look and yada yada yada...?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
