Dimension to something beyond crop region

When working on details, for instance a ceiling furr down, how do y'all show a dimension from the furr down to the floor?  See my attached sketch to see what I'm talking about.  I'm wanting to do this inside of a callout detail view [has a crop region] as well as a drafting view [without a crop region].  If anyone has ideas, throw them out there...

I have a stretchable line based detail family with arrows and text as label to fill in.

In your case...

That's easy add an elevation marker. I'm Not sure if it needs a level.  I use a spot elevation tag in plan view to note the difference in floor elevation.

 

There are many cases where I would like to see the dimension to the next thing, or Important reference, and the annotation crop cuts off the dimension.

 

 

Just my 2 cents

Are you just bragging or might you share....  I'm lazy...

An elevation would work for a one story building in some cases [and in multi story projects I guess with some maneuvering], but only in a model based view.  In a drafting view, I'd have the same problem.  the best I came up with was a reference plane for the dimension to snap to, but I had to create another dimension type that had no "ticks".

Which version of Revit can you open so that I can upload the right file?

@FAZIOGREG

 

Use a "Detail Item Line Based" family if it is to annotate Detail Items (you can apply same principle using Generic Model Line Based would work similarly for same purpose in different environments but if it is within a detail item family I would recommend the attached)

 

See attached family (Revit 2014 but I guess you should be able to upgrade it to which ever version you are using - hopefully you are not using an older version)

 

Dont forget to edit the nested families...ex: text to match style and height to that which you use or to reset parameters between type and instance
