How do I make a label visible in elevation/front view?

Hello,

I am trying to to create labels to identify my families in elevation view. I am able to create them and make them visible in Ref/Plan but if I want to load it to the front/elevation view, I get this warning: "Can't create this kind of element in this view in the current mode." Maybe I have the wrong type of annotation symbol? 

 

My ultimate goal is to identify all my families in elevation and ideally each family will have this label before being loaded into the project. 

 

Any info will help.

Thank you all.

You can't. Tag in Project

Sadly Nested generic annotation only work with plan and not elevation/section. Vote this feature to be added. Your only solution is use model text or detail line drawn as text for elevation.

Adding labels directly to families is not a good way in Revit, even for plan views where you can.  Those labels will show everywhere, at any scale, and they are hard to turn off without some elaborated workaround. 

 

Use tags instead.

Would I be able to add a TAG to a family and have it show in the project? I want the TAG to show at the time I place a family in a project. Is this possible? (this is all in elevation view)

Not hard to turn off if you set it up correctly and can simply use view templates to control their visibility. I tried to set this up to directly incorporate glazing labels into door and window legends, since those CAN'T be tagged, before I figured out it wasn't possible. This is a really dumb and arbitrary limitation to Revit that should be fixed.
