Hi,
I'm working on a family with a Generic Annotation/Symbol. What I like about symbols is that...:
- They always show on top of de model
- They use the annotation scale, making sure they are always readable.
However, for this specific family I'd like the symbol to be visible from Section-/Elevation views, and from floor plans. Does anyone know how to create a symbol that is visible from multiple view direction?
Thank you kindly!
I've tried the following:
- In a project I can add a symbol to a floor plan and to elevation view. I need to place separate symbols unfortunately. This is undesirable.
- In a (model) family I can add a symbol to a floor plan, but not to an elevation view.
- I've tried a workaround with nested families [Symbol -> Intermediary face-based family -> generic model (rotated in multiple directions) -> Project]. Only the symbol that is directed toward the floor plan is shown.
