Property Line Tag not working!

[Jason]

There is probably a simple and obvious solution to my problem. I have drawn a property line and loaded the property line tag from the "annotation folder". But when I try to tag the property line, nothing shows. Is there a setting somewhere that controls this? I loaded a default template (Revit) and it works fine. Calling Reviteers, please help.

First, check your Visability Grahics (VG), for the specific view(s) that you want to see the tags in. Check both the Model and Annotation tabs, and make sure the Site>Property Lines and Property Tags boxes contain checkmarks. If that does not correct the problem.. come back here...

Hey G,

Thanks for the reply. I have looked at both tabs and they are all checked. What elso could it be?

I get a message saying no tag is loaded for this type but the property line is loaded. It is shown in the families categlory in the browser. I have never had this problem before. Comments anyone? Please.

Did you load a Property Line [Segment] tag? or a Property [only] tag? Were the Property Lines created using the Property Line tool (on the Site Design Bar? Is there a Topographical surface? If you turn on Wireframe, are the tags visible -- maybe they are hidden by a surface or some other model geometry.

If none of these ideas help, then can you post the file, here. If not, file a Support Request (link from the Help menu).

Graham,

I fixed it. I never noticed this before and I don't know if this happens to others. Here is the background of what happened and what I did. When I drew the property line the first time, it was on the site plan. I couldn't tag it to show the length and bearing of the property line. However, when I redrew the property line on the main floor plan then go to the site plan I was able to tag it. I never noticed this before because I was start my work on the first leve. I am wandering if this has anything to do with at what level or plane the property line was drawn on. Anyway, I have spent enough time trying to figure this out, time to get back to the real work. i will try to understand it later on when I have more time. Thanks for your help.
