This is a bit of a wishful question, regarding scales in Revit, involving title blocks.

 

As we know, we can put in a label on a title block and Revit will let us know the scale of the drawings (providing they are the same). How I have mine set-up, I have Scale @A1 - 1:100.I am wondering if it's possible to add a section scale label which calculates the scale at half, so if the document is printed at half-size, automatically it displays the scale for that print size. Example....

 

Scale @A1 - 1:100

Scale @A3 - 1:200

 

Which would show up in all drawings, regardless if it's printed at A1 or A3. So is this possible? Or do I have to manually put it in with text?

No way to do this that I know of....

Why don't you have a "stamp" that you can turn on in the titleblock that says HALF-SIZE PRINT

We have a not for construction "stamp" in our titleblocks.  I would think you want something similar. 

 

Note that are stamp is cocked so that it stands out.  The visibility of the stamp is set with a parameter.  To set the parameter for printing, pick any instance of the titleblock, then pick select all instances in the project and set the switch.
