I make a cross section and I detail it a bit. Add insulation etc...
I make a callout on an area with a few detail components.
When creating details from callouts, none of these elements appear in the callout view.
I know I can copy and paste what was already there, so it's not the most annoying thing.
Yet, if I have to change something, say shift the placement of a wall, I now have to change detail elements in more than one view. WHY? !!! Is there a way for the callouts to show the detail elements of another view>?
Details and annotation are view specific. When you create a callout only the model elements show in the view. What you should do is duplicate the view with detail, change the scale and crop, then go back to the parent view, create a call-out and reference to that dupped view.
I see, how can I create this reference? I'm looking int he properties and the type options but not seeing anything that would allow me to change the reference.
if have to recreate the call-out. When you create the call-out, don't draw the boundary yet, check the Reference other view box and pick the view from the drop down list. Then draw the call-out.
Anyhow, you may want to group the details so that when you change them in one view, they update in the others. Still, the best practice is leave the model views clean and add details in the call-out views.
Thanks,
Couldn't see the option as it was greyed out. Strange that you need to do this before you finish the callout. Would be useful.

The option is not available for 'real' callouts. You have to recreate the callout in order to get it. After that, you can change the view reference from one to another, such if you want to use a drafting view in lieu of the detail view.
