Scaling?

[DanielleAnderson]

Is there a way to scale objects or annotations in revit?

Hi Danielle,

There is no scaling tool in Revit.

I think it is on the wishlist though.

To assist "the Factory" to better understand your needs, could you describe the circumstances that require scaling in a project ?

Danielle,

Revit text objects (annotation, dimensions, grid bubbles etc) are defined in 'real world' units. If you want the text to be plotted at 3/16" high then define the style at that height. When you create a view with a specific scale the text and other annotation objects will scale accordingly.

Nope Dimitri, it wasn't text, it was an annotation object. There was something else I wanted to scale the other day, but I can't remember what it was. Well, anyway, it would be helpful to be able to scale annotations/symbols and also objects within the building.
