is there anyone who knows how can I add ''scale'' column to my Drawing List without having to type it in manually? i know that the scale is taken from the view but is there a way to make a smart parameter that can read the view scale and add it to the drawing list?

Thanks!

Nope, not supported.

You can add a project text parameter called "scale" tied to sheets and then add it to your drawing list, but you'd still have to fill it in (and update it) manually, but once you type a unique instance once, you have the option of filling the others in with the drop-down feature.

yeah i knew i could do that, but i was still holding out hope that i wouldn't have to do it manually. Revit has all these great features, but simple ones like this they leave out. i don't get it.
