Edit Annotation Tags similar to Civil 3d Annotations

Edit Annotation Tags similar to Civil 3d Annotations

Would be great to be able to edit annotation tags for an individual instance similar to what is allowed for Civil 3d annotations.  For example, being able to tag a W24x36 beam to add text at the end while still keeping the model information..  W24X36 Field Weld in Place or something custom to that instance.  Would be great for window and door tags too.  Just right click, would be super helpful so that the annotation would still be linked to the BIM model and would not need to be static text.

Tags are automatic in Revit. Not meant to be edited. Because they are used in Schedules and Reports. Manually editing Automatic Annotation Tags will get you to no good, because the internal Revit project database will keep the old tag. Instead, you should create a Schedule or Material Take-Off of that tag(s) and edit that tag inside the Schedule. That is the only way to tell Revit you want that tag changed for good.
