No Parent Keynote Warning

Hi Everyone,

 

I had this problem ever since I started using Revit  +7 years ago: Warning: No parent keynote. In order to fix it, I have to retype twice or thrice before the warning will go away. I have a parent keynote but for some reason Revit cannot recognize it. It's been everyone's problem in the office. Is there a way to fix this? Because it's been so annoying getting this warning every time we're adding keynotes.

 

Are there anyone who knows to fix this problem?

 

Thank you,

Malou

You need to check the keynote file and make sure all the headings are defined for Categories and subcategories...Also the formatting of the file...it could be that the heading is there but the formatting isn't right; hence Revit is not recognizing it.

 

You could share the file if you want someone to have a look at it

There's heading as well as category and sub-category. I retyped thrice so Revit can recognize it. It works now but it shouldn't be this way. I did not change anything, I just deleted the text and retype it. Can Autodesk solve this problem?

Personally I have never had this problem throughout the past 10 years of Revit'ing 

Something or someone seems to be changing the formatting of your keynotes file! If it's Revit doing it then everyone else should have the same problem...or?

K...Edited 3 times, saved, closed and tagged after each edit and no warnings!!!

 

  1. Do you edit it usually in Notepad or Excel...the latter is recommendable 
  2. Anyone else edits this file beside your good self?
  3. Are you using any 3rd Party Keynote Manager app or add-ins

I am the only one editing the keynote text file because I don't want redundancy.

 

Really? I have to close the text file every time I have to add keynotes? What I usually do is add a keynote text, save, then reload the text file to revit without closing it.

 

I used Notepad. That means excel is better? Why?

Not better but more failsafe I guess … I have always used excel to mange comma/tab delimited  in Excel...try it no harm in that

 

Why I always close...a workflow habit because it is centralized and several users can add to their local files and when saved and closed it updates the central which is loaded into revit

 

Hope any of the above helped :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht: 

Cheers

Open the text file in Excel, edit, save 1st time normally as the same txt format, save 2nd time with a different name (I append _for Edit suffix to the file name), and you can keep this open and load the original keynote file in Revit without the warning of the file being open.  When you need to edit again, do it on the _for Edit file and keep save as twice as said above.

I used that excel script, and after pretty a long term of fiddling around here, I made a course...

And then I used caricature fillet to round the corners.
