List Key Notes w/ circled numbers?

[pat.walsh]

Is it possible to get the key notes to be listed on sheet with circles around the numbers such as they appear on the details?

If you want to see circles around the numbers in the keynote legend, you'll have to draw those in manually - not a good option.

The intended way to do this is to make an external keynote wile which can be edited in notepad. The format is very simple. You can read more about it in help. You can assign keynotes to materials, components, detail components, etc. You can also have user keynotes as well. What this means is that, let's say you cut a wall section and you made a wall with multiple layers to the wall. Each layer you assign a material and each material can be assigned a keynote. You then can use Keynote>Material and pick each material in the wall section and it will give you the keynote. The Keynote tag by default will show you the number, the number and note, or just the note, depending on what type tag you use. Note that with assigning a keynote to the material, it will give you the same note regardless of thickness. As such, I personally am not inclined to assign a keynote to a material such as Metal Stud Layer and have it assigned a note like "3-5/8" Metal Studs" Unless You want to make a material unique for every different thickness of stud. It may be better to leave the note as " Metal Studs" and then dimension the section. Or, rely on assigning a keynote to a Detail Component that can be unique for every different type. This is how the program works out of the box. If you use the keynote file that comes shipped with the program, it has a keynote assigned to most every element in the shipped library. The keynotes are associated with the spec divisions. The User keynote option allows you to draw a keynote to some element and then pick a keynote upon placement. This keynote is not necessarily associated with any particular object so it won't automatically give you the same keynote in other views. I utilize these for specific notes.

Another alternative is to create a generic keynote tag and then use a note block. You can find an example of this method in the revit tutorials...at least it was years ago. This is a quick method for having numbered "keynotes" and a block of associated text along the side of the drawing, but your notes are really just floating over the view and not associated with any objects. For example, if you change an object, the note will not change or move with the object if it's location changes. But, it is quick and works pretty well. We have used this technique and added a parameter that allows you to have a Note Block for Floor Plans, Elevations, RCP's, Interior Elevations, etc. That allows you to use the same numbering for your notes across a view type, but not necessarily the same numbering from plan to elevation, etc.
