All text notes on all of our views placed on sheets were copied and rotated about a strange axis. I narrowed it down to a specific user, however they weren't noticed right away, making back tracking the user's actions very difficult. There are many, many views this user never even opened, much less worked in, so I can only assume it was a single process that was performed accidentally. The user does not use dynamo, so a faulty dynamo method would not be an issue. Our office uses very little, if any plug-ins, so I'm assuming that is not an issue either. I'm at a complete loss with very little information. This is a serious problem for our construction set and I need to ensure it will not happen again after we clean up all of the notes. Has anyone encountered this and know what the cause of this is?
Hi Tim,
Thanks for sending in your question to the forum. The PDF you shared is very hard to view, it's mostly brown. But it looks like it is screen shots from within a desktop product. Can you tell us what you are seeing this rotated text in? Did you mean to post this question to the Revit or some other forum?
Thanks in advance for getting us more details and have a great day.

Hi Bud,
My apologies, this was intended to be in the Revit forum. I was going back and forth between the two for a couple issues and wasn't paying attention to the forum I posted in.
The rotated text is indeed in Revit. It literally looks like someone selected all text notes in that view, copied and rotated, but since this occurs in every view, I'm assuming it was a single command that was accidentally performed.

It effected all view types: Plans, Detail views, drafting views, etc... And the notes were copied from and pasted in the same view. So notes applied to view A were copied, rotated, and pasted in View A. Notes in View B were copied, rotated, and pasted in View B. Notes in View A were not pasted any other view. My first suspicion was the user "Pasted to selected views" and selected all views, but that's not the case considering the pasted notes vary from view to view.
I encountered the same issue in Revit 2020. We use BIM 360 Document Management and currently have 4 users updating the same model. Random text notes with arrow heads get copied between Drafting Views, Plan Views, Sections etc. A root cause analysis from Autodesk would be appreciable. On the date of submission, cleaning up the haywire text notes is a nightmare.
