north arrow / elevation symbol

[gautamrs]

' Afternoon Friends,
Thank you for the previous responses. I need some more help, please! I am looking for two families. The first one is an intelligent North arrow which will respond to bearings or table values and set the North value. The second one's an elevation symbol with a bubble (triangular head that determines direction) and no labels. I tried using the interior elevation symbol, but I can't seem to disable the text value. If anyone has modelled one or knows where I can locate one, please let me know. Thank you very much.

Gautam

For the north arrow - I always have two ref planes in my project - one at plan north and another at true north. The I can just use my align tool with the arrow and ref. plane to point it exactly the correct direction.

As for the elevation tag - you're stuck with what Revit has given you.

Thank you Aaron. Appreciate it!

Gautam,

I'm not sure what you're looking for. Do you mean that you want an elevation symbol to work like the default exterior elevation one in revit? where it will have the center callout, then the triangles - but no view name, only the number of the view when it is added to a sheet?
if this is the case, you can make an elevation tag - see your settings pulldown menu - near the bottom... that will include the view number, but not the view name - and make it round instead of square.
aloha,
jamie
p.s. what i do have is an interior elevation key symbol. just A, B, C, D and a note in the center that reads "INT ELEV KEY". please let me know if that is what you're looking for.
p.p.s. the other thing i have is a north arrow that you can manually type in the angle for....

I'd love to see this implemented...seems like a 'no-brainer' (an obvious feature).
