Line Based Text Annotation Family

This line-based text annotation is a Revit family designed for document coordination, featuring adjustable length and spacing parameters. This annotation family provides a flexible, line-based solution for labelling and referencing in Revit documentation. It features a host-based linear component that allows users to define specific lengths and spacing intervals directly within the project environment. The text elements, reading 'above' and 'below', are parametrically driven, enabling precise positioning relative to the drawn line. Its clean, minimalist design ensures clarity across construction documents, making it an essential utility for drafting notes, section markers, or site-specific callouts where standard text tags might lack the necessary geometric control or alignment capabilities.

The download is a 215 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this family into your project and place it as a standard detail component. Once inserted, use the instance parameters to adjust the total length and spacing values to match your drawing requirements. The line-based nature of the element allows it to be stretched or snapped to existing geometry, ensuring consistent alignment across your views. Update the text labels through the family's type properties or instance-based text fields to suit specific project labelling standards.
