I'm creating a new metric Exterior Elevation tag. I want the Elevation text and the line in the body of the elevation marker to stay horizontal all the time. I have the labels in the elevation mark body. The arrow is a family inside the body family. The arrow head rotates properly but the label and the rotate with which ever way the elevation is pointing. See attached image. Is there anyway to remedy this? Thanks.
Regards Peter.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try this family (2015). It's not metric but you can see how it's done. This won't work when your view is rotated, though.
Thanks - that is what I had already done but I removed the 3 other pointers, which apparently is not a good thing. It's funny though because I added a line and the labels to the body and I could not get it to stay unrotated. Thanks That solved my issue.
Cheers Peter.
