    Default SIM?

    Is thers a way to create an interior elevation tag that is a reference of another? I assume there is but I cannot figure it out; if there isn't is there a good workaround?

    Thanks!

    When you place the second view tag check the Reference Other View box on the options bar and select the elevation you want to reference from the pull down list. This will also work for details, sections etc.

    Referencing another view has worked great for everything except for when I try to reference a detail view from a section. Well, to clarify it references it but the annotation doesn't cooperate. I only get the option of a tail going the wrong direction or two blank cycles. (It works fine if I reference another section from a section). Any ideas?

    Check which head and tail the detail is using. People often forget that a detail section is seperate from the rest of the sections.

    Aha! Thanks. For general info, I changed the type parameters in settings > view tags > section tags.
