#Revit delete text styles manual

Making the borders custom is another manual procedure, if you don’t want the borders on all 4 sides of every cell, then you can’t just use the settings in the Appearance tab. Changing it here will change it for all the body text of the schedule, but keep the sorting/grouping headers to whatever was set in the “Body Text” style. Choose the font and other styles that you want.Go back to your schedule and select all of the columns by clicking and dragging across the letter header.In the “Body Text” style, choose the style that you want your sorting/grouping headers to be.In the Appearance tab, uncheck the boxes for “Show Header” and “Show Titles.” The Text styles that you pick for these don’t matter because you won’t see them.I will walk through the steps to make your schedule appear as it does in the image below. There is a trick to make the sorting/grouping headers between different rows a different text style than the rest of your schedule, but it’s something that is done manually to the schedule. I’m going to teach you a couple of tricks that I’ve learned over the years to get over a few of these limitations. You can add some borders but it can be finicky. You can’t intuitively make certain elements bold or apply a shade to every other row to make it more readable. You can choose 3 different text styles for the three different parts (Header text, Title text, Body text) and that’s about it. I’m not going to lie, the features available to make your text look good in a Revit schedule are very limited. Simply highlight a column or the schedule title cell and then choose the Shading tool from the ribbon. It can be used to differentiate between different groups of parameters, help quickly identify working schedules, and help you identify which parameters are used for sorting/grouping/calculating and shouldn’t appear on your drawing sheet. ShadingĬolor is a powerful tool within schedules. I utilize shading to differentiate different types of parameters.

Welcome to Part 2 of our Schedule Series! I’m going to start with how the schedule looks because I often use graphics to help me with a variety of things.
