so ive got this item showing up in nearly all of my views... I have not seen this before, don't know how I turned it on, cant figure out what it is... and I don't want to see it.  but since I don't know what it is, I cant find the tool to turn it off.

Yes... this is surely an amateur question, but its my question, and I'm sticking to it.

Hi,

 

Looks like the Arrow you see when selection a Survey/Base point.

Which Revit version, I believe R2020 or R2021 can show the point of links in the Host.

 

Maybe worth seeing if a link has overrides and turn the Project Base point and/or Survey point off?

2020.. I thought it looked like some sort of base point also,... I suppose I turned it on accidentally, I know there's lots of hidden bonus points in this game.

I'll tell you what it is! It's been the bane of my existence since it showed up last year! #$@&%*!

 

All done.

 

Have a nice day.
