Allow users to create Dimensions, Keynotes Tags and Notes inside Families that appear in Project Elevations and Plans.

Allow users to create Dimensions, Keynotes Tags and Notes inside Families that appear in Project Elevations and Plans.

Also allow these Family Annotations to appear outside crop regions of internal elevation views. Pre-populating Dimensions, Keynotes Tags and Notes in Families would be a significant time saver for our drafting workflows. We have been able to nest Generic Annotations, Detail Items and CAD Text into our families. This has saved time but it hasn't automated dimensioning processes and these annotations can't appear outside crop regions.

We are having to build companion flanges, with dimensions to holes. I am able to get the holes to show at 6" centers. It would be great if there was an option to show the text with dimensions so that we wouldn't have to do it manually for each instance. Adjust the family, turn on the holes needed, and an option to turn on the dimension text along with it would save loads of time. This is just for this instance, but would be helpful to turn on dimensions if you are verifying equipment for example. Turn on dimension text, and verify that it matches your submittal.
