Locked Revision

Hello.

 

I'm currently working on Revit light 2021 and struggling with removing a revision from a sheet. Having previously issued the sheet as a draft (numerical revisions) I am now formally issuing the drawing so no longer wish to show the revisions. I'm opening the 'Revisions-appears on sheet' dialogue box, and unticking the revisions.

 

However, on this one sheet, one of the four revisions will not let me un-tick it, and therefore it appears that this drawing still has a draft revision. You will see this on the image here - sequence 26, kitchen drainage.

 

I have tried to do this with the revision both issued and not issued. I have successfully unticked this revision on other sheet. I have looked in the revision manager and cannot see a reason why this would be locked. 

 

Please could someone explain or point me in the direction of how I can release, and then remove, the revision as I cannot draw a masking region over to cover the text (a cheat I realise) in order to finish printing it.

 

Many thanks

You can't untick if there are actual rev clouds on sheet or views of that
sheet. Turn on cloud and delete them. Btw, if you don't need the Revision
anymore you can delete it from the Revision list instead of unticking it
for every sheet.

Thank you @ToanDN 

 

The slight complication here is that I don't believe (and certainly can't see) any revision clouds on the sheet. Having tried to delete the sheet to start fresh, I have had an error message flash up that this is indeed the problem, so I will examine the revision carefully.

 

I'm wary of deleting revisions to loose the record, but will certainly bear this in mind.

If you want the Revision in the list but don't want it on the rev schedule
on sheets, then delete it and recreate one with the same info.

Not wanting to delete Review reference as they are from a past project and could be useful in the future, so is there another way to turn on revisions in the title block

Open revision dialog and turn on cloud and tag.
