                                Master It    Inserting tags quickly can be a good way to make documentation time more
                                efficient. How can you quickly tag a number of elements in the model at the same time?
                             Add dimensions.    Dimensioning is a critical part of the project documentation, allowing
                             you to communicate the distance elements are from one another.
                                Master It    Adding dimensions is a necessary part in any project. However, in a project
                                workflow you will typically want to change the location of a dimension’s witness line
                                without having to re-create the entire dimension. How do you move a witness line with-
                                out remaking the entire dimension?
                             Set project and shared parameters.    Revit Architecture lets users add as many custom
                             parameters to an element as are needed to document the project. These parameters can be
                             both tagged and scheduled, depending on how they are made.
                                Master It    You need to add a custom parameter for your project to track the percentage
                                of recycled content in materials. What’s the best way to go about doing this?
