    Default REVIT TEXT: CARRIAGE RETURN?

    Is it possible to type a "carriage return" in Revit text? (In my sheet name, I want part of the name to drop down to the next line)

    For that you might need to create a label with two parameters in it - in which case you can force the carriage return - Or place 2 labels in the sheet family. Otherwise if you make the label width limited then a long sheet name will have a return - but automatically, not in any controllable fashion.

    CTRL-ENTER will work as a carriage return for some parameters.
    You can find a thread on this HERE

    i.e. it won't work for a view's name, but it will work for the "Title on Sheet" Technically the CR is a symbol, so it won't work where symbols aren't allowed
