Someone who no longer works with us created a box with a letter V inside to represent a visual alarm. Some of the boxes are drawn with the letter V upside down. How do I correct that? pls see attached.
1) This "should" have an annotation as part of the family. If not, if the letter is symbolic, it could be your problem. Symbolic lines won't orientate properly.
2) If it is indeed an annotation as part of the family, open the family and make sure the text or lable has "Keep Readable" checked in the properties.
3) Make sure it's hosted properly. If the element isn't hosting to the correct hosting element, it CAN do some weird things. So, I would guess in this case it should be hosted to a basic wall.
"2) If it is indeed an annotation as part of the family, open the family and make sure the text or label has "Keep Readable" checked in the properties."
Where would I see "Keep Readable"? I don't really have any idea how to get there.
What happen is, it if it hosted on the wall, the text assume the angle of the wall.
If you open the family, it should have an annotation family attached (the symbol).
If it's a wall based element, under the view pull down (project browser), you'll see Floor Plans. In Floor Plans, click on Ref. Level. Click on the symbol and "Edit Family". In there, you should see the symbol. Grab the actual text and go to Element properties and in there you should see "Keep Readable".
If you can't figure it out, can you attach the actual family to this thread?
