Create Color-Contrasting Rows in a Revit 2021 Schedule

October 4, 2025 IMAGINiT Technologies

By: Roger Weires | Applications Expert 

Issue:
A Revit schedule is so large it is hard to tell what row you are on.

Causes:
The Revit schedules before 2021 only had black and white rows.

Solution:
With Revit 2021 it can change the row color.

  1. Open a schedule.
  2. In the “Properties” pallet, go to “Other”, go to “Appearance”, Click “Edit..”.
  3. Click on the “Appearance” tab.
