Do Extra Sheet Lists under my Schedule (other than the one actually created in the Prj Browser) Useful in my Revit Project?

[LanggamanXavierMassed]

I have multiple Sheet LISTS under my schedules(in project browser) and tried if it means you can make other sets under Sheets (BTW I have a "main" sheet list which consists all the sheets I've created as standard),  going in the second extra sheet list schedule, I can't create another row even clicking on the Insert row, which may mean these schedule cannot create a separate actual sheet list under the "sheet" in the project browser.  Sorry for I may have made a trippy paragraph.  

TIA

I would suggest you post a screen capture of the list in question and another of your project browser so we can see what you are talking about.

I'm glad you said that. I was starting to think I was having one of those "acid flashbacks" they talk about. 

Can you post some visual aids?   

...if I get the gist of it right,  you can accomplish what you are after through duplicates and filters.

I think I understand.

When you are in a sheet list view and you click on "Insert Line", what Revit is doing is creating a "non-placed" sheet waiting to be created by going to the View | Create Sheet menu.

The second thing is that there may be a view filter setup on your sheet list that "hides" your newly created sheet.

Therefor, this newly created sheet doesn't show up in the project browser or the "filtered" sheet list, but will be in the bottom part of the View | Create sheet window, waiting patiently for you to select a drawing frame to assign to it. Once you do that, it will show up in the Project Browser, but won't show up in your Sheet list view until you change whatever parameter is filtering it out.

thank you, I'm trying to understand this part

As to whether they are "Useful in my Revit Project", It would depend on your office standards and work flows.

An office might want to enter all the sheet information early on in the projet or in a template but not want to create/populate all the sheets until the are to be created.

Look at the "Filter" properties of the lower case "Sheet List" view to see why it is not showing any sheets.

An example of a second sheet list would be to show only the strcutural sheets in you project on a seperate coverpage for the structural part. This is sometimes a requirement when a different professional must sign the document set.

Whatever the reason, someone editing your project created both "SHEET LIST" and "Sheet List". There are no standard Sheet lists in the OOTB Revit project.

Doesn't sound trippy at all. I have them and they are for different purposes. One with proper grouping, filtering is to place on sheet as the sheet index. Others are working list to entering, checking information, etc...
