revit - place the beam tag in the middle of the beam itself

[Ielenio]

Good evening,

Surely it will be a stupid question...... but I wanted to know if it is possible to automatically place the beam tag in the center (in the plane), instead of having to do it manually for each one.
I can only place it outside and attached to the beams.

thanks to all

...using which command? the beam labels can be inserted in 3 different ways. . .

 

[Ielenio]

I know "tag by category" and "tag all", could you tell me the third way please?

 

[Ielenio]

...I was also wondering if there was a way to tag the measurements directly on the sides of the pillar section, as I often see in autocad and fill, automatically, the sections of the pillars and walls with a sampling. Consider that we are in revit structure, I do not know if there are differences with architecture in this regard.

right next to "sign labels to all" (tag all) there is "mark annotations" (beam annotations)

but not automatic. you will need to create a label that reads the parameters of width and height in separate seat and place them by hand.

...and automatically fill the sections of the pillars and walls with a sampling.

sure, using a material appropriately set with the samples you want to use

1) Yes, I remember trying also "beam annotation", but I managed only to place the tag on and off, instead I would like to be able to position it right at the center of the beam itself, as to say, superimposed. I probably miss something.. .

2) where do I start? also how do I insert the pillar parameters into the label? My level revit is not so high... .

3) I will try to do it, thank you

revit also allows to modify the type of director of tags?

I don't remember if he can actually put it in the middle. but by memory the tag all does (it depends also on the family of label used)

begins by creating a family of structural pillar labels. . .

Of course! check in the properties of both the type and the instance of the label

regarding the editor of the tag, I am able to change it as much as it allows revit, but I can't control both extremes, but it's not important.

about the sampling, I managed to change it and put the desired one, but now a problem with a "particular" section pillar was born, which I created. I set the material and sampling of the section, but, although I see, in the properties, my settings, these do not appear in the screen.
