Callout, Section Mark Custom(Parameter)

[jdhF2S5U]

I'm modifying Section Mark and Callout Mark, but there's a problem that I can't solve.

 

First of all, we added a parameter called "Example-1" to Sheets, which is a parameter that allows you to enter code separately from the sheet number.

When cutting a section, the section mark is originally marked with "Detail Number"/ "Sheet Number" to express the drawing number on the sheet, right?

I'd like to describe it as "Detail Number" / "Example-1." Is there any way? First of all, I put the parameter "Example-1" in Callout Mark. But, it doesn't work. It doesn't work, and it doesn't work directly. Why???

 

 

I don't know why. It just express question mark.

Any solution or another way?

Help me..

Is this due to the Parameter needing to be View Related?  Also ensure your Shared Parameter is Loaded into the Project as a Project Parameter

Try this tip I have come across before for Section Heads as they don't allow you to add other parameters.

Fortunately there is a workaround for that!

Follow these steps:

1. Make a new family using the Section Head template or use and existing one and Save As

2. Inside the family, go to Family Category and Parameters and change the Category to Wall Tags.

3. Add your label with your Shared Parameter.

4. Ctrl+C the added label

5. Switch back to the Section Mark Category

6. Delete the existing label.

7. Ctrl+V the before copied label with the Shared Parameter.

8. Save the family

I'm lost. Why would you place on a Sheet a Project Parameter that is to be "read" by a Callout or Section Marker ?  Callouts/Sections can't be placed on Sheets.

Oh, actually, I saw your reply last time. So I'm already doing it. But I don't know why, it doesn't work.

There is a drawing number that my company uses in sheets, and there is a code from another company that I work with.
I can enter the sheet number as a code, but I still need each sheet number and code. Also, the code is a combination of four items, so each parameter is needed. For example, each code for A, B, C, and D has a parameter, so I actually want to have a parameter that is entered as A/B/C/D in the label.
I know that how can I combine those thing..but, I can't use it.

Anyway, this is why I need.

+ Ah, Did I get it wrong by any chance? The first question was, you want to replace the sheet number in the original section mark and callout mark with something else. Like 'sheet number-2' parameter

I don't know if I understood it right.
