View Full Version : How to purge out "Callout Tag 1"?

All of my views have a Callout Tag property, and in the dropdown box there are 2 choices - the one our office uses, and "Callout Tag 1". All the view types for all views are set to our office standard, yet the Callout Tag 1 is not available in Purge Unused.

I'm trying to set up a detail library RVT file, and for it to work like I want I need EVERYTHING to be set up exactly the same as our company template file.

I have looked at Plan views, Ceiling Plan views, 3D views, elevations, sections, drafting views, area plans, and all are set the same way with regards to the Callout Tag setting. Am I missing a view type that may still have its Callout Tag property set to Callout Tag 1?

In the Browser, can you find it, and then Right-click delete it?

If not then it is in use somewhere. The reason there is a callout 1 is brcause something was cut-n-pasted into the project, or duplicated, either one.

Callout Tag 1 does not show up anywhere in the Project Browser, nor in Purge Unused.

It shows up under Manage > Additional Settings > Callout Tags, and it has its callout head set to <none> and corner radius 1/8". However I cannot find ANY view type using that callout tag type. This is why I don't understand why it doesn't show up under Purge Unused.

This is nuts. I even deleted the "Callout Head" annotation family, and it gave me the warning that it was also going to delete dependent types, including Callout Tag 1 and our office standard callout tag. So I said okay, delete.

So now Callout Head is gone from the PB, but the two Callout Tag types STILL remain as options in the Callout Tag property in all view types! What gives???
