I normally hang out in the Civil 3D forum but am just looking at what Revit may (or may not) be able to do for me.
I'm setting up a sheet template family which seems to work as I want and am I have also created a Generic Annotation to hold revision information (as the built in one doesn't suit my purposes).
My question is how to get the text in the Properties panel to be in the order Revision, By, Checked, Approved, Date, Description1
Thanks

Have you tried numbering them? Ooops - just tried - didn't work.
Here's what will work -
The highlighted buttons will move parameters where to want them.
I don't know if I understand you correctly, so pardon me if this is not on point.
If you're referring to order in which family parameters are shown in the project, you can change the order in the project if the family parameters are shared. To do so, create project parameters with those same shared parameters used in your family, and put them in your preferred order. When completed, reload your family and it's parameters will now show in the same order as the project parameters.
My biggest issue with the built in revisioning is that e.g. Sheet 0001 may be at Rev P04, Sheet 0002 at Rev P05 and Sheet 0003 at Rev P02 and each of these revisions have text descriptions that are unique to both the sheet and the Revision number i.e. the Text associated with Rev P04 on Sheet 0001 is always associated with Rev P04 on Sheet 0001.
The Revit method seems to not respect this fact or have I completely got this wrong??

You can set up[ revisions to be per project or per sheet. It sounds like you might want "per sheet"? So you add revisions to the sheet and they are numbered in sequence on the sheet starting at 1. So in the image below I have the 5th revision overall is placed on sheet 102 and numbered "1" the other revisions are placed on their respective sheets and also numbered "1".
I don't know why this thread has been marked as having a solution (so i have umnmarked it) - my contention is that this is a workaround as the revision logic is seriously flawed in its current form.
While each revision can be controlled for each sheet, each one appears on the "master list" and the correct one must be ticked on each sheet which is surely a recipe for confusion??

@ToanDN - thanks for the file - I'll certainly consider using this in the future.

You don't have to tick anything if you draw revision cloud(s) on the Sheet or in any Views on that sheet.
