Just wondering if there is a quick way to quickly unscramble detail numbers in my elevation drawings. Thanks.

This has always been a pain when the numbers get placed out of order. Sometimes I'll just use letter for the numbers, then go back and replace the letters with the numbers in the right order.

Nope.
You'll have to renumber them yourself.
Revit has no idea what your numbering scheme is. It doesn't know if you number from the upper left, upper right, or lower right, so which one should be 1? Should the numbers go left to right? Right to left? Top to bottom?

Our office uses a module. A1 is upper left, H8 is lower right.

Anyway, the point is, Revit can't "automatically" number the details because every firm does it differently.
