Non Plotting Notes

[bwagner]

Is there a way to add non plotting notes or comments to a Revit Sheet.

Thanks,

Revit does not have a non-plotting layer property like Autocad does. The best you can do is place some notes to the right or top of the sheet border. Revit will plot from the lower-left of the border and will only display the extents of the border.

Thanks for confirming my suspicion that this is currently not supported in Revit. Our specific issue is that we have an area of our sheet that we need to reserve for future use. In AutoCAD we placed a box that defines the reserved area with a note on a non-plotting layer in the sheet border.

The work arounds I have come up with so far is to add a white solid filled area to the titleblock. It does not hide the view titles but is does hide the view graphics possibly alerting someone to the problem. The other idea I have is to add the box and note to the titleblock family and assign a parameter to the family to control the visability of the note and box but the user would need to remember to turn it off before plotting. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks,
Brett
