Change revision on multiple sheets

[yavork]

Another basic functionality to the revisions on sheets could be added - the 'Revisions on Sheets Button' should not disappear when selecting multiple sheets so we could change the revisions on multiple sheets with two clicks  instead like now have to click  each sheet individually and change revision.

(Copying a smal revision cloud is something we dont really like in case someone suggests that or dynamo)

Idea was mentioned already somewhere in the comments section so credit goes to:

why you don't add revision number to your sheet's family? like designer or address which are parameters and they could be manage by family. for example at this family If i change project name, it will change at all sheets and it is one time work.

I don't think you're understanding the issue I'm presenting here. I understand that you can modify a sheet family but I am trying to reference information in a project so I don't have to edit a family. I think that was the point in Revit having the Revisions added to the software. It seems like an unnecessary work around for something that should be easy to do. 

Above is the tool I am referring too.

Xrev Uprev is a free add-in that does what you are asking. I use it to apply a revision to a selection or all sheets once the revision has been made.

Yeah. A typical example of multiple selections. There are many areas in Revit that could improve by allowing multiple selection/edits

[MichaelWSullivan]

I successfully use the Up Rev add-in by Xrev Freebies as well

[monica_greco]

Yes please. We currently create a cloud on one sheet, and copy and paste it to multiple other sheets, as that's currently the fastest solution.

The thing is though we shouldn't need to download an API for this... should as simple as selecting drawings and then clicking the revisions you want.

This is one of those items where every few months I find myself having to deal with it, I forget that I've already found and voted on the Idea, and I come search for it again. I've visited this page several times in the last few years. I'm glad it's 'Under Review', but that's been over two years. Hoping for movement on this soon.

uprev adds revisions to multiple sheets quickly and it's free, been using it for years-

I'm using revit 2019 and can only assign one sheet per revision. It would be good to see revit allowing us to assign a revision on multiple sheets by selecting sheets from project browser & click edit button (Revision on Sheet) from the properties palette.

Are you aware of the method using Revision clouds?

[benjamin_miranda]

I'm interested to know if you don't mind.

1. Set your revision up in the Revision Dialog, leave it with 'Cloud and Tag' on.
2. Go to any sheet you would like to apply this particular revision to.
3. Drawing a revision cloud of any shape (we are going to turn the revision cloud off at the end so it really doesn't matter what this cloud looks like or how big it is).
4. Once the cloud (with the correct revision) has been drawn and finished, copy it to your clipboard.
5. Then use the 'Paste to Selected Views' command (we have ours on a keyboard shortcut for ease (PV)) and choose the other sheets you want to the revision to be applied to. Use Ctrl to select multiple (you can also hold-click and drag).
6. Hit Ok
7. Go back to your revision dialog and set the 'Cloud and Tag' to 'None.'

[benjamin_miranda]

The cloud still on the project (only turned off) which is I'm not happy with but it works as a workaround (appreciate & thanks for sharing).

I still believe my suggestion still outweigh this due to number of steps involve and cons above.

[CFNBen]

I totally agree that this is a workaround and that your idea has merit. Now you have a way of doing it while we wait for Autodesk to (probably) never add this feature.

Can you explain why you are not happy to have the cloud "in the project?"

[Anonymous]

This actually used to work once upon a time.  For some people the "Revisions on Sheet" would still show up when multiple sheets were selected.  There were theories it was a graphics card issue or all windows on one monitor or just something was installed that allowed it.

I use Revisions to demonstrate the state of the project internally within our organization and would love to have the ability to select multiple sheets from the Project Browser to enable the Revisions rather than sheet by sheet!

Our internal usage doesn't have Rev Clouds, so using the automatic rev cloud method would not work for us.

[HGE-KM]

Anyone know if this has been fixed?

The only workaround we have found is to create a very small cloud in the corner of the sheet (typically on the binding edge), and then copy/paste to selected views. It's not ideal to have a little speck in the corner of each sheet, but it's the only thing we know that is really quick and works. Added bonus is if it's not an actual revision, you can then hide the cloud once the revision is added to the sheet, i.e. issue for permit, construction, etc.

We are updating this thread to Gathering Support. We are continuing to evaluate where this request falls into our roadmap and will provide an update when we have made a decision.
