Sub category for text?

We have a Specialty Equipment family for modular shelving units that has text in it that reports the size of the shelving unit.

 

We want this text to appear in our plans.

 

However, we have an architect that is complaining about it appearing in his plans.  He has asked that we make the text a sub-category of Specialty Equipment so he can turn it off.

 

I know how to do this for lines, but not text.

 

We have a parameter on the text so we can turn it off before we send him the model, but it's a bit of a hassle to remember to turn it off and on depending if we're sending a model or printing our own sheets.

 

Ideas?

Text and Labels have no subcategory...that architect might be confusing Revit with another BIM authoring software. What you can do/work with is

  1. Either use a visibility parameter 
  2. OR nest the label as a generic annotation and switch the GA category in those views

Are those tags generic annotation embedded within the family? If it is, I would set the display for the text to appear in medium or fine detail. When Architect received their model, they won't see those text at course level and they can certainty set the speciality equipment to course if they want their detail level to be fine.
