    Question Legends - how to show beam-beam & beam-col conn?

    In the Revit Structure help (I'm using 2009), on the "Project Views" > "Legend Views" page it shows a "SYMBOLS LEGEND" that has a moment connection that's similar to what I'm trying to make, but I can't seem to find how they did that. I can insert the triangle moment symbol, and I can insert a fixed-length beam, but I'm having trouble lining them up (not to mention that the beam's too long). Also, the engineer wants to show beam-to-beam and beam-to-column connections. I can't rotate the beam component to vertical. For now I'm just droping cropped views of the actual project onto the sheet (although I'll have to do some manual renumbering if I add any details to that plan sheet), but I want to find the "right" way.

    I've attached a screenshot of the legend. The symbols & legend components for the 3 connections are on the left, and the 3 cropped plans (that I'm using) are on the right (in the legend).

    The symbols in the legend are just drafted rather than using structural connection annotation families.
