Modifying Section Tags/heads

I was wondering if there is possibly a way to create, modify, or edit the section tags in Revit. I've tried going through Properties> Edit Type to change the size, and type of the tag (or the section head), but i notice there are only seven options, and no way to change the size of them. Is there a Family Type I can edit? Where would I find it? Is there a way to create my own, perhaps, and upload it into my model template?

 

Thanks in advance,

Great Thanks!

Now if I want to change those a little, for example change the text and make the section head smaller, how do I find where the location of these files are. I have been trying all day to figure out where this is lcoated :"2 Tails with Label"

Thank you so much for helping out on this, something we're still working on in house. So I study your file and kind of make it work but we'll

have to deal with family system - type show up on the browser - lile shown on attached image.

Do you mind saving down to Revit v2014? Thanks for uploading your file, I'm working on the same issue and would like the referencing detail number to always appear 'above' the tail marker.

 

Thanks

Please disregard my previous post, I just scrolled down the thread to see that you've already done that! Thank you.

So I reviewed your revit file and found this to be a good solution. However, does that mean that the section has to have similar looking head & tail markers for this solution to work? For example, can this work with a more traditional head marker (circle) with a horizontal tail marker? And keep the text in the direction of the section?

 

Thanks
