    Default General Notes Text Boxes

    We do large sheets of text in our sets and with the known issue of the fussy text editor has anyone used key schedules as a general notes tool? Seems like it would be much easier to control the spacing and justification with the columns in a schedule.


    I tested this out...It looks awesome and very easy to control. I'm sure this isn't new to anyone though.

    We converted all our general notes from text boxes to key schedules during release 11. We got tired of our text "jumping" out of place every time we tried to make an edit.

    This is a great tip, I must try this!!
    I'm still fairly new to REVIT and get very aggrivated with the bugs in the REVIT text editor. Especially when I go back in and edit existing text only to have everything jump around and having to re-tab stuff.

    Thanks for this thread.
