In-Depth Information
Once you have chosen a titleblock and clicked OK, the sheet will be created
and active in the drawing area. Depending on the parameters you have in
your titleblock family and the data you may have already entered into the
project, some of the information may already be filled out in the sheet. Revit
automatically applies a sheet number to the sheet, starting with A101. When
you change the sheet number, the next number in the sequence will be
applied to the next sheet. For example, if you give a sheet a number of M-1,
the next sheet you create will automatically be numbered M-2.
You can change the values of the labels in the titleblock either by selecting
the titleblock and editing them in the drawing area or by selecting the
titleblock and changing the parameter values in the Properties palette. As
with all parameters, if the label turns red when selected, that means it is
a type parameter and must be edited in the type properties of the selected
object. Some of the labels may be properties of the project information and
may not appear in the properties of the sheet. Edits to Project Information
parameters are applied to all sheets where labels are reporting the
information. You can access the Project Information parameters by clicking
the Project Information button on the Manage tab.
As you give your sheets names and numbers, they begin to appear in the
Project Browser based on your sheet organization settings.
Organizing Project Browser Sheets
You can organize the sheets that you create in your projects in the Project
Browser for easy access and coordination. Right-click the Sheets heading
in the Project Browser, and select Browser Organization to establish the
organizational structure for sheets in your project. The Browser
Organization dialog box appears and displays the Sheets tab, as shown in
Figure 23.7
.
A few preset options can be used, or you can create new types
for custom organization.
