Elevation marker text slightly slightly askew

Anonymous

Hi,

 

I have a conundrum. I have the exact same elevation marker in 2 different project and in one of them the sheet number in the marker is slightly misaligned. Also I drew a line from end to end in the marker and the whole marker seems to be off. What is happening, I am losing my mind or what?!? I have loaded in the family from the project where it works into the project where it doesn't work and it didn't fix it. So same family behaves differently in two different projects. See snippet

Are you saying you can't rotate it?  What probably happened is that the marker aligned itself to a target element, such as an wall, that was slightly askew.  I'm betting it's referencing another view.  Am I right?

No, don't think so. The text "A405" is not aligned in the middle of the bubble. It's only slightly misaligned but it really bothers me. 

 

But are you saying that it has to do with the wall not being straight? Is there a way to make the text label in the family to always stay in the middle of the bubble no matter of the angle?

Edit the elevation marker family of the good project and load it to the bad project, choose override when asked.

Well I didn't do that but I did make a new elevation marker, placed it on a sheet and its....perfectly fine. Why is Revit doing this to me?!? argh! Anybody know why they are different?

Looks like a different Font, Justification...maybe Width Factor. 

 

...maybe one is Bold and the another not. Have you checked any of those possibilities?

Drill down into each of Elevation Marker Properties and see they are defined differently.  You can have different styles in a Project.  Both these are Interior Elevation Markers in the same Project:
