How can I create and rotate a detail view within a stair section without having my section marker in my stair section disappear?

I'm sorry, I'm trying to understand exactly what you want. Can you write more details of what you want and what's preventing you from achieving it?

This is really confusing..so here we go...my plan view of the stairs is angled and needs to remain angled. my section cut is perpendicular to the stairs. From the section I need to create additional section cuts that become detail views. They look very similar to plan views except they are not orientated the same as my plan views. I rotate the crop region of my freshly created detail view to get it to read on the page( to coordinate with my plan view call outs) When I rotate the detail view, The tag in my section of the stairs directing me to the detail view disappears. How can I rotate the detail view without making my tag in the section disappear?

Sometimes when you rotate a section its crop region jumps to a location where it no longer intersects the view that you originally rotated it in, meaning you lose your marker. I find if I open the view and recorrect my crop region it should appear again.

Am I thinking along the same lines?

HTH.

That would make the tag reappear. However I need the view to be rotated and I need a tag to get me to the view. Can I have both?

Are you able to post a screenshot of what you want OR a sketch?
