Custom 'As indicated' text in Scale parameter

Custom 'As indicated' text in Scale parameter

When we place views with more than one scale in them on a sheet, RVT defaults the scale paramter in the titleblock to the text "As indicated". Living in a non-english speaking country, this is often a target of ridicule and amazement and I can see why.

I would like to be able to change the default "As indicated" to a custom text in my own language, in the same way as it had been made possible in the schedules with "Custom grand totals title".

Hi all, 

I found a step by step video on a walk around for this. Took me 5 min. to do and works great!

I resolved this with visibility parameters as I show U in the next images so you only need to  have two types in the title block = with single scale and multiple scales and apply to the label and the text that you want to show for example como se indica instead as indicated. (this parameters has to be Instance)

it's better to be able to customize sheet scale parameter. 

words often used:

AS INDICATED

AS NOTED

AS SHOWN

D.N.S(DO NOT SCALE)

N.T.S(NOT TO SCALE)

...

Appears that there is still no user-level control over the "As indicated" text - would appreciate this functionality
