Text as part of design options?

Text as part of design options?

Any way text could be linked to design options within one file?   We do a ton of different schemes using the design options function which is awesome.   Would be great if each option could have the various annotations as a part of that particular scheme.

Be able to add text to Design Options without having to duplicate views

Users would like to have more flexibility to which design options dimensions or annotations have been assigned.

 

At the moment, a dimension connected to an item, e.g. a wall, disappears after a change of Design Options, which is logical:

For other Annotate, users would like to be able to change from the Properties Palette to which Design Options is assigned e.g. for Text:

It would be good if revit respected the dimensions allocated to the design options, as shown in the GIF attached.Revit DO.gif

I have a similar issue where material tags tagging materials inside design options are orphaned when opening up a model, even though the view is set to that particular design option.  As soon as I toggle to activate the design options, the tags reassociate.  This is incredibly problematic behavior if we are printing large sets.    Orphaned Material Tags.pngResetting Tags by activating design option.png

Hi, @randy_lmn ,

I have submitted this issue to our developers for further investigation. Your particular instance sounds like a bug. What version of Revit are you using?

 

Thank you for the additional details!
