I have been trying and failing to find a way to prevent revit from automatically rotating the label text when the section symbol is displayed in elevation and in other sections. I have managed to create a symbol(s) that accomplish this in plan but when the symbol is translated to section/elevation views revit forces the label orientation. Is there a way around this? I have attached images showing the symbol in plan and then again in section.

Yes there is a way to do this!
Im at home now - Will post my Section Family tomorrow.
I think you go into the Section Symbols Category Parameters & change it to "Always Vertical"

In the Section Head family, check the parameter for "rotate with component"
and reload it into your project.

Does anyone know if a solution to this was ever found? I've tried everything to get the same results as the images in the first post w/ no success.
