Hi, Is it possible to add a custom field to a revision schedule? When I edit a titleblock sheet family, there is no 'Project Parameters' button in Manage so I cannot see how I can add a field. Am I missing something? Cheers.

Sorry but in a revision schedule, you only have 4 fields available - - Issued to
- Revision Date
- Rev. description
- Rev Number
But .. maybe you could change the name of issued to and use that field if not used for anything else....

OK, thanks. I would love to see AutoDesk do some work on Revisions, this is one area which is miles away from our company standards...

I agree. I wish there was a way to do "Issued" seperate from "Revisions." I need to be able to to issuances to track most up-to-date drawings in the design phase of the project with engineers. Revsions are made for the contruction phase of a project after the drawings have already been designed.
Any work arounds on this?

You can always create a schedule key from an unused category and place that schedule key on your sheets.

Yeah that's what I've been doing thus far.
I think I can combine the two lists together somehow. Calling it "submissions" or something of that nature.
Then I can just not put a revision cloud for the submissions that are just for "pricing" or "engineer submission."
Then just putting revison tags and clouds for the ones that are TRUELY revisions.
Do you see anything that might be detremental to this solution?

Does any one else have an answer to how to change the name of a field in a revision schedule? I always first try finding my answers via the help feature, then turn to Revit City. The only thing I can find in Help is that I can change the name by clicking on "add parameter" which is greyed out.
Thx

From your HELP:
"...To modify the text in a column group heading, click the heading field and edit the text...."
