Types of Keynotes

Element. A keynote can be applied to an entire element, such as a wall, detail component, or door.
Material. A keynote can be assigned to a material that has been painted on a surface, and to materials
assigned to the component layers of an element. Keynotes are not supported for the insulation drafting
command or the detail components line and filled region.
User. This option provides a way to use commonly used notes or phrases to address documentation
issues. These additional user notes must be added to the provided keynote text files or included in one
that you create. See

Assigning Keynote Values

Assigning Keynote Values to Materials

Keynote selection can be applied to materials. Keynotes are assigned to materials on the Identity Tab of the
Materials dialog. To access the Materials dialog, click Settings menu
When materials are assigned a keynote value, the objects that use these materials inherit the keynote value
accordingly.
A great deal of time can be saved if the materials of a project have their keynote values applied before you
apply keynote tags to materials.

Assigning Keynote Values to Elements

All elements have a Keynote Type parameter. These can be supplied in advance using the Element Properties
dialog (see

Assigning Keynote Values Using Tags

After you apply a keynote tag to an element, material, or user, you can select the keynote tag and click over
the keynote value or empty value to open the Keynotes dialog. When a material has no assigned keynote
value, Revit Architecture opens the Keynotes dialog so that you can pick one.
NOTE If you click OK, Revit Architecture uses the keynote value that is currently selected. If you click Cancel, the
keynote value remains empty.
