when i am doing my section in Revit, there are some levels have the same name, such as Top of Steel, and Bottom of the Steel etc...
also, in the interior elevation, we usually use same ntitle Int.Ele for each view,
but Revit does not allow you to use same level name. how do you solve this kind of problem?

For TOS and BOS, use spot elevations, not levels

But you can not type the name in the spot elevation.
I want to change the family ot spot elevation , but there is no label can be added in it

There are some people that still want levels... I suggest you name the level accordingly ... it will not be parametric - ie.. TOS EL 110.00 - Just a discipline problem then to keep that coordinated.

STOP YELLING. You can add a name to the spot elevation. Use Single Value Prefix and Suffix in the element properties of the spot elevation.

Does anyone have any idea about the same view name in the sheet?
can you make the title has different name as view name when u put it in the sheet?

Go to the View Properties

Under "name on sheet" you can use anything you want--different from the Level Name.

Example: "Level 1" is the Revit name for the Level
For the sheet, you name the Plan View ( per instruction above) to read "First Floor Plan"

Is this what you are asking?

cheers.........
