YOU SPECIFIED A COLUMN WIDTH LARGER THAN SECTION CAN ACCOMMODATE REVIT

 I am trying to resize a schedule in RVT 2022. I want all my columns to have different specific sizes and the total width of the schedule is 30.0409". However, when I input the size I want in the last column, this (see picture above) message appears. The same happens if I change the size of the header (which is the overall size of the schedule).

 

How can I override this? I've seen other schedules that the overall size is 30.0000"+ so I know it is possible...

It's referring to the Graphic Column Schedule.  

 

Add Grids.

Before we go there, does deleting and recreating the GCS resolve Warnings?

It is not a GCS, it's a Schedule/Quantities.

Say what?  Are you sure there isn't a Graphical Column Schedule?

 

Post the file.

I want it to be 9.1242". But it will only let me have a 1.0625" max without changing the other columns because the schedule cannot be more than 20.0000"

I have never heard of the 20" limitation.  This dude down here is 61".  Maybe set the view template to None and try again.  If still a no go, copy paste the schedule to a new file and share it here.

HA! This isn't my day for reading. You're saying "columns", as in schedule columns, and I'm hearing "columns", as in structural columns.   

 

Sorry about that, Chief.

Here's the project. It is called 'lighting schedule'. Thank you for taking a look.

Because you only have one column in the schedule.  One column is 20" wide max.  Simply add another parameter and you can change the overall width to 30.0409".
