Rotation of generic annotation at sectiton/elevation views

[denisyukJ]

Hello,

I need to mark all elements at section/elevation view, but here is an issue: some tags should be rotated according orientation of the element. 

   

I have tried to:

1. Insert tag inside the family, but this method doesn't work for section/elevation views.

2. Make a tag supporting roration fuction, but this method doesn't work only as type parameter.

Can some of you give me advise how to solve this question?

Rotate Tag in Project View.  😉

Edit the tag family and set it to rotate with element.

@ToanDN, 

Could you be so kind to explain how to implement this method?

Tag is not rotateable in section/elevation view, isn't he? Only vertical and horisonal positions are available.

Use the Rotate tool.

I've tried, but it doesn't work for me.

No like issue here.  I can rotate a Tag in Elevation/Section.  

Edit the Family and see if changing the status of Rotate with Component and/or Keep Readable Parameters helps.

What version of Revit?

2021

I have tried different variations of these parameters, it dorsn't work as well.

Do you have a drop-down with Horizontal, Vertical and MODEL showing on the Options Bar?

Nevermind. I just checked. 2021 doesn't have Model so Rotate won't work.
