In this full Advanced Revit course, you will learn Autodesk Revit. These 15 advanced Revit tutorials have a focus on project organisation and efficiency as well as annotation, stylisation and smart detailing using the industry’s leading 3D BIM software, Revit.
In this Revit tutorial, part 8, you'll be introduced to keynotes. You'll understand Revit keynote tags, set up a keynote file and link it to your project, add items to the keynote schedule, tag items in your project with keynote tags and add a keynote legend to all your sheets.
If you have ever watched a Successful Archi Student KZbin video, you would have noticed that Kyle is engaging, informative and entertaining.

After completion of the Beginner and Intermediate Revit Course, you’re ready to master the industry’s leading 3D software, Revit in this Advanced Revit Course.
What is Revit?
Revit is a BIM (building information modelling) software that creates intelligent 3D models of buildings which can be used to produce construction documentation drawings and design presentations. Revit is a building-specific solution for design and documentation and is currently the industry’s leading software for BIM. Revit is used for conceptual design, 3D parametric modelling, detailed design documentation, multi-discipline coordination, modelling building components, analysing and simulating systems and structures, iterating and visualising architectural designs, building performance analysis and more.
Why learn Revit?
Revit not only allows architects to design and model 3D solutions, but the BIM software also allows for seamless collaboration between disciplines which makes working with structural engineers, other designers, and MEP consultants incredibly efficient.
Why learn Revit with Kyle?
Let’s face it. Learning software is often complicated and difficult. Doing it by yourself makes it even harder! It doesn’t need to be that way. In this Advanced Revit Course, you will be learning from a Master of Architecture student who has practical Revit experience across four architectural firms (which all use Revit as the primary design and documentation tool). You will be able to follow along to learn the skills and confidence you need to use Revit efficiently in a professional setting.
You can spend days, weeks or months learning Revit by yourself, and not necessarily learning it the right way. In Kyle’s 200+ lesson course, you can fast-track that journey to gain the skills to design and model in Revit at a professional level.
Most online Revit tutorials or courses are boring, slow going and demonstrate incorrect practices. Trust me, I’ve found that out the hard way. If you’ve watched Kyle’s videos before, you’d know that these Revit tutorials are fun, fast and easy to follow.

The best video on keynotes! You are a natural teacher!

[@kylesinko]

Wow, thank you so much Larry! Cheers

[@gibsonkalafiu5452]

Now I just found a better way to do my project done in less time. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

[@kylesinko]

So glad to hear. Cheers

[@ngonimadondo9253]

Thanks a stack for simplifying keynoting. Greatly appreciate.

[@mustafizrahman252]

Excellent tutorial about Keynotes of Revit

[@kylesinko]

Thanks a lot!

[@cesarbcerra11]

This video is excellent, go to the point and explain everything very well. Thanks!

[@kylesinko]

Thanks a bunch! That's what I'm all about. Cheers!

[@manueldouglas3435]

Wow, I am in the process of creating a template with some custom stacked walls (therefore no need to duplicate). This will help immensely as I can associate these new walls with thier keynotes automatically

[@akrammaad7609]

Thats so cool, kyle you should adress the phasing subject existing/demolishing/new as well and how can we change ligne whieght

[@stevecooper3010]

Your good mate, Thanks for your help again

[@Duke-The-Jaguar]

Great explanation and so much detailed. Love from Nepal and Mt. Everest.

[@markleo8895]

Sir Alot things that i learn from you thank you soo much

[@kylesinko]

Really glad to hear, thanks Mark

[@bobrossdahoss]

Thanks for the video. I know you mentioned it briefly, but is there a way to add/include any additional parameters into the Keynote legend? I have several situations where I want to filter/sort the data a bit more with a custom parameter, but I can't add one no matter how many workarounds I have tried. I could use the Notebox method instead, but I prefer to keep everything as keynotes. Any ideas?

[@hamishwoollett1692]

Appreciate your videos man! Thank-you.

[@kylesinko]

Thanks a lot Hamish, I appreciate your support!

[@SirKombabomba]

Brilliant lesson-Thanx Yo!

[@kylesinko]

Thanks a lot!

[@andresortega8813]

Interesting!!!! does anyone know how to change the scale of the keynote text?

[@eastudio-K]

I finally learned how to use keynotes with your video, thank you. My question is can you wrap texts? I am using keynotes in details, and the actual note not the number. Maybe thats the problem keynotes are meant to use the number I guess right?

[@kylesinko]

Glad to hear! Cheers. You can use the actual notes on details, no worries. You can't wrap text in the sense that you distort the shape of it.

[@werghemimehdi3852]

Thanks

[@majdfaidi81]

Thanks that was really helpful, I have a question regarding keynoting an elevation... why can't a reveal have a keynote? I couldn't edit its family to have a keynote either

[@kylesinko]

Good question! You might have to use a material keynote instead of an element keynote. The element keynote will only allow you to pick the window/door family as a whole. A material keynote will allow you to pick the reveal material and tag that

[@Tunakens]

I understand how to use them. But I don´t quite get why this is better than just a Typemark, description and a schedule. I don´t know if I´m missing something or is there some advanced way to use keynotes?

[@kylesinko]

Thanks for your comment! I explain the benefits of Keynotes at the beginning of this video. You can also use category tags to a similar effect, but I find Keynotes better personally. It simplifies your model and ensures no mistakes remain when making changes.

[@BrissyFan321]

Hey mate, is there a way to create a legend with imagery/symbols/detail components?

[@kylesinko]

There is, but I wouldn't recommend it. Keynotes or schedules are the most effective way to create legends. Cheers

[@BrissyFan321]

@@kylesinko Thanks mate, love the videos.

[@kylesinko]

@@BrissyFan321 Thank you very much :)
