Swap legend on a sheet without manually removing and placing

Hi fellas!

Is it possible to somehow swap a legend on a sheet without having to manually remove and replace with a new one?

Why not swap it manually? Use refplanes for positioning...

Time consuming. Would be easier to say that 50 drawings should swap from legend A to B than to manually delete and replace all of them.

You can duplicate the legend and edit original to new legend with same position.

I guess that only works if you need to replace all of them, if you need to place a legend on several sheets you could use pyrevit plugin - copy to sheets function to copy a legend to selected sheets.

Edit: Don't think it has a delete function though, so easiest thing might be to delete the original legend itself and use above to re-place it with new ones A/B on selected sheets.

  • Select the Legend on a sheet to be removed
    • Right click and select all instances
    • Delete
  • Place the new one on a sheet (I use Guide Grids)
    • Select it and pick Copy to Clipboard
    • Paste > Aligned to selected views.

not sure off the top of my head if there is a way to create a schedule that would show what legends are on what sheets so you can be more selective on the Delete part.

@Marcus.Isacsson, Two options I see;

  1. Edit the current Legend Schedule, (because Legends are not accessible in the Revit Interface to Right-Click/Select All in Project). So you would be better off editing the current schedule to make it what you need. No manual replacements needed :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht:
  2. Place a new legend/schedule on a sheet, copy it and "Paste - Aligned To Selected Views"

     

    But you will still have to go and delete the old schedules manually :verwirrtes_Gesicht:

I don't know about that... and/or in which Revit version, perhaps latest (currently i'm in rvt2019). Edit: tested, works in 2020 version :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht: So that's easier then with add-in... Don't know why but for some reason it deletes some other views though, when selecting all in project (=possible) (bug?)

Copy paste the content from the Legend view want to the Legend view already placed on sheets.
