Just curious if it's possible to manually introduce a new line of text within a sheet name label. Instead of allowing Revit to decide when to move text to a new line based on its length, I want to be able to control when it begins a new line. As an example, I'd like to be able to achieve this:

LIFE SAFETY PLANGROUND LEVELRECREATION CENTER

and not this:

LIFE SAFETY PLAN - GROUNDLEVEL - RECREATION CENTER

 

Any recommendation would be appreciated. Thanks.

My example as typed in the post above didn't display properly. I just want to have three separate lines of text and not one continuous string. See attached image.

You can just add spaces in your title to get it to break where you want.

 

When you do that though ... it will mess up your normal drawing index ... but you can work around this.

What is the suggested workaround for the drawing index issue that arises?

The Ctrl+Enter trick doesn't seem to be allowed with the Sheet Name parameter. What you could do is instead of using the Sheet Name parameter, make a new parameter (Name On Sheet, or whatever you want to name it). Then as you are typing use Ctrl+Enter wherever you want to break the lines. It'll require a little more coordination as the sheet name you see in the browser will not automatically match what is in the titleblock, but it should work.
