CUSTOM VIEW TITLE

Hey guys!

 

Does anyone know if it's possible to create a custom View Title in Revit? I'm trying to figure it out for a while already and still haven't gotten anywhere so far. 

 

I've searched Autodesk forums, YouTube, a few Revit Forums, and didn't find anything. 

 

Anyone?

First result Googling "Custom View Title":
Creating a Custom View Title - YouTube


Here's a Revit Product article:
Video: Customize View Titles

Is that not what you mean by view title?

Good luck,

No, I meant a custom View Title 'symbol' if you wanna call it that. Something like this for example:

The view title is a loadable family...edit the existing and skrible in it whatever you want using lines and annotations... move the labes around and aline as needed then reload into the project and overwrite

I did exactly that, but when I saved it and imported it to the project, Revit didn't pick up the family as a View Title.. :verwirrtes_Gesicht:

Terminology is important when dealing with Revit's ecosystem. Here's a quick breakdown:

  1. A revit view has a view family with a "Title" parameter that selects the annotation family to display;
  2. A revit annotation family of type "View Title" contains the linework and labels that will display with the view.

When you modify an existing "View Title" annotation family and, without renaming it, reload the changes into the project, the changes should show up immediately. 

 

Alternately, if you saved the annotation family under a new name and then loaded it in the project, you need to change the "Title" parameter in the view family to select that new name. You can also create and name a distinct view family (ex. with your firm name) by duplicating and renaming the default view family and editing it's type parameters.

 

Hope this helps,

Hey thanks so much for the clear explanation @lucdoucet_msdl!! I'll try that and it is most likely gonna work cuz I renamed the View Title family I edited. So thank you!

Hello, Thank you @lucdoucet_msdl for the explanation. I have another question regarding extension lines.

Is there a way to fix the two extension lines that our Autocad view title standards have as shown in the attached image?

The easy answer is yes if the two lines are always the same length on the printed page and independent of the number of letters in the view title "typical detail" in your case. You can draw these lines in the annotation family along with the labels that read the view title and view scale parameters.

 

The other answer is no, if you need the top and bottom line to be stretchable. The stretchable line is hard coded in Revit and they give you only one!  You'll have to adapt your design and choose which line you want to keep.

 

Hope this helps,
