Has anyone else experienced the issue of the electrical outlet symbol not showing up correctly on a power plan? How do I make the symbol show up properly? See my screenshot.

It seems like this plan is set to a Medium level of detail. Usually Annotation Symbols are set to only show at a Course Level of Detail.

 

Check your level of detail and or View Template and see if changing it to a Course level shows the symbols.

If you do want your plans at a Medium level, then you will need to update your families for this.

Hello,

 

Can you share the outlet family for checking?

Does the same family work as expected in other views/projects.

 

It appears that the family may not be set-up to show the annotation symbol properly.

 

The detail level could also be overwritten in the V/G settings.

 

For a direct answer, share a model that exhibits the behavior.
