I have tried both the "dummy" method and the schedule method. I honestly prefer the "dummy" method because of spell check. And it's just simpler--Why complicate something when you don't need to? I recommend adding your notes to a Drafting View, though. That way you can copy them to a master library and just insert from file. Or use a legend view if it's general notes that you need to use on several sheets. Also SHIFT+ENTER at the end of the row will get you the empty row in a bulleted list, so you don't have to backspace. Keystrokes count.

Thanks so much for this tip! I had no idea! I agree the dummy method is so much easier. For 1/ 2 story projects id prefer this method. If you have more floors then I think a smart note system starts to make some sense. It is hard to manage though.

I’ve done sheet notes both ways you showed (note block and regular text). I had no idea 2023 had that feature. It’s an absolute game changer.

I know! If you think of other ways this could be beneficial let me know.

Hello there! I bought both of your courses plumbing 101 and 102. They are very educational. My drawings on my portfolio looks more professional than ever!. I do have one question on construction drawing course. Do pipes or mechanical systems need to be color code or is it ok to be all black?

[@mep_guy]

That's great to hear! Typically when I print construction documents I do it in black and white. But when modeling inside the software I do use color to separate the systems. There is a print setting in Revit where you can set it to black and white and it will remove all the colors for your PDFs.
