Fair enough - but why don't the engineers do their own index, email you a jpeg to your requirements for inclusion on your sheet? Why waste your time doing their index?Originally Posted by Skisouth

Why do we still use keyboards that were designed to slow the typeset down because the typewriter could not keep up with the typeset? In my outline for Revit adoption I stress two points. One, Revit is a tool and it should not dictate how we make our drawings look. Two, Revit dose not approach architectural issues of design and production the same as past projects and a open mind must be maintain as this is the time to look at why we did things we did and dose Revit do it better. So, should the architect maintain a comprehensive cover sheet that ties the whole set tougher? Or do we treat the set as individual ententes that happen to be bound as one. Personally I see Revit being developed as the new standard and am waiting for my structural and MEP to be on the same platform. I suspect if this was the case I would not have to create blank dummy sheets and the data base would be one and cover would reflect this.
As is I have to nearly make my index nonparametric which I find painful.
Great & helpful pdf...thanks.
Now for another titleblock question:
I've set up my project wide parameters under the Project Information settings and I'm wondering if I can set up more "edit" dropdowns (like the one for Project Address) for other multi-line text?
I don't think we can do that. Its one for the Wishlist.
a simple way is just create and insert a generic tag family with instance parameter in the sheet, and on the sheet link each text to a diferent text parameter.

hope it helps
