Is there any way to edit the standard wire tick marks in Revit Systems 2.

Settings -> Electrical Settings -> Wiring -> Wire Tick Mark Style

There are like 5-10 options to choose from

We would like to use a dash line for a ground not a solid line that is standard. We would need to Edit the standard symbols or know how to add to them and get Revit to let us add a style. styles a-i are nothing we currently use. Thanks

if you go under your families in the project browser, and then go into the Annotation Symbols sub-menu, you will see three families called "Shortwiretickmark" "Longwiretickmark" and Hoolwiretickmark"

I haven't messed with these much, but that should be what you are looking for.

We also use a different line for ground, so I edited the LongWireTickMark.rfa.
In our template file I set the tick marks to be Style C (which uses the LongWireTickMark), and everything works great.
