Elevation tags with adjustable head size

Elevation tags with adjustable head size

Revit is using one size fit all, this doesn't work all the time and for every situation! make them flexible in size, please!

I'm sure someone has thought of this before, but wouldn't it be lovely if Revit scaled the elevation tags with the scale of the drawing? My 1/8" = 1'0" floor plan has HUGE elevation tags. Perhaps I'm missing something?

I think since Revit 2013 we have had the ability to modify elevation symbols... I ditched the OOTB elevations and created the custom versions we had in Autocad.  I wouldn't make them parametric though, there are 2 different families (1 primary, 4 nested for the arrows actually) and they don't work together.  I created multiple types and could change them on the fly if I needed smaller callouts on small scale plans.

Seems the work around has been to edit the families to customize the sizes accordingly.  Would be nice if REVIT view template scale properties could automatically also gauge the size of annotation tags, section heads, etc. on plan so that one would not have to adjust them everytime, like AutoCAD scales does between model and paper space.

@Anonymous  Then that would go against how Revit's annotation symbols work.  Elevations, sections and text are all the same.  The text size and graphics will always be the same size no matter what the scale of the view is. When not using Annotative symbols in Autocad, you are cheating and the text really is not to the proper scale.

 

I modified all my sections and elevation symbols as 90% of my plans are 1/8 scale and they were way too large.  But I did create a half size with 3/32" text for even smaller plans.
