Creating Custom Elevation Tags in Revit Arch 2011

I have attached the Elevation Tag I have attempted to create. The pointers are included. Why are the text and line rotating when I create an Elevation using this tag ? I am using three pointer families.

Please let me know if adding a second pointer family for the right side works for you ion this issue as well.  I included the video and example file below as well.

Issue resolved by ensuring all pointer families are oriented in the same direction [facing up].  Then load them into body family, and rotate there as necessary.
