I am using Revit 15, and it seems crazy to me that there isn't an option to change that, i tried copy and pasting from word, and that doesn't work. And making a color filled region seems a little excessive to have to do everytime i need to label anything that regards to a chilled water piping run.

It’s not a perfect solution, but hopefully it will make a life a bit easier.

No thats actually pretty sweet. Just different color fills with a Yes/No parameter named after the color. 

But i cannot do just different color text, because its in the contract's specifications. Thanks pijpiwo. I'll take the concect, and match my spec to it. appreciate it man.

The file is just an example, feel free to modify it any way you want it. I’m glad you found it useful J.

Yea def is. thank you kindly. you would think that would be a parameter option. something to adjust in the out of the box Revit. But i guess once its made them i can just apply it to a template, and from now on, i guess it will be. i mean it can't be that hard to program it into Revit. Especially with 15 release, instead nnnooooo, We get sketchy lines. lol =). But its all good, thank you again man. Def did helpl me out.
