Element Keynote doesn't aply on al Legend view

[toninaranjo]

Hi, I'm having problems with a Legend view, with different types of walls. Material Keynotes function properly with the layers of the walls, but I can't place Element Keynotes in the wall. Keynotes have been assigned previously both to elements and materials.

In a plant view I don't have any problem.

Thanks!

Instead of a Legend, why not a View as a Wall Legend? You could place all your Walls in a "pre-existing" Phase that has no interaction with other Project Phases/Walls, and then create a "Legend" View.  Get it?

This is how we do Curtain Wall Legends.

Ok. I was trying to avoid working with phases, but I think your comment is the only possible answer.

I still don't understand why Revit doesn't allow to place element keynotes in Legend views, and works perfectly with material keynotes.  It drives me a little bit crazy, 🙂

Thanks a lot.
