Locations Title Block

The Location Titleblocks utilize a family called View Window which can display both Views and Schedules. The View Window family is multi-functional and created in a way to easily select views, assign view templates, and resize viewports. To apply to other title blocks, simply load the View Window family along with the View Templates into a project. Depending on the selected type, the Start/Stops are color-coded for visually identifying the view type.

NOTE: The eVolve Electrical software has a predefined location title block that can be found in C:\Program Files\eVolve\eVolve Electrical for Revit 20xx\Resources\Families.

From the project, open a Location Sheet. Alternately, to quickly create one:
If not already done, create a location. From the eVolve Ribbon, in the Location Breakdown Panel, click Create Sheet. Select the location template and click OK.
Click on an interior outline edge to select the title block family, then click Edit Family. This will load the location sheet family.
