Hi fellas!
Was about to place a color fill legend and was a bit stunned about the fact that you can't seem to place a legend with both names and areas? (... as most would like to have it?)
Does anyone know of a good workaround? Or have I missed something?
Thanks in advance!
I don't think its possible, I think its one or the other.
But you can tag the room with name and area.

Yep. Wish it was. It has been "officially" wished about too.

I have a couple of workaround. It is up to you if they are good or not.
1.
- create a color legend for Name
- create a schedule, add Name and Area fields, grouped by Name, unitemized, set Area field to Calculate totals, hide Name column, format to remove border/title/header and the only left are the Areas
- place it next to the legend on sheet, some find adjustment so the rows line up
2.
- forget the legend
- create a schedule with Name, Area, and Image field
- format and group as you see fit
- capture each color of the scheme to a PNG file and add them to the Image field in the schedule
- use the schedule in lieu of a legend
We use the approach where color swatch is sized to match schedule column and row height.
Hello,
This is my first post in forum, and I am rather beginner in Revit.
Does anyone knows how can I add a table with colour and area of a facade like in the photo below:?
Do you think it has been done with Revit ?
Many thanks!

Simply Split Face the exterior walls and paint them with different materials. Then create a Wall Material Takeoff schedule to get the calcs.
for your reply. I did everything you said, now I have a wall material take-off table with name of each facade and area:
however I still have three problems:
Thanks for your help again!
Here is an example of finetuning them.
If you legend line spacing is already at their minimum then you need increase the schedule row spacing by adding a column to the schedule, override the column to a bigger font size and white (254 255 255) color.
You can keep changing the font size until the schedule matches the legend, or adjust the legend swatch height until the legend matched the scehdule.
