fire life safety - dashed arrow?

[kczege]

Has anyone made a "dashed line with an arrow" family?
I am working on setting up the FLS sheet standards. I have seen the great rated partition symbol family, I love it (thank you). But how can I make a line that is just dashed, really thick and has an arrow at the end? I need to show exit path.
Thanks.

The tutorials and the datasets that go with them are in different downloads. the datasets are in a series of 4 ZIP files. There is an arrow like you describe in the datasets. One of the tutorials also has a lesson on using it to create fire safety plans and travel distance schedules.

I have seen the egress path sweep one, thanks, but it does not have an arrow.
Jeffh: Do you happen to know which tutorial would have it? There is a lot to choose from in the link you sent.
Thank you.

I use the attached family, in an area plan set to Coarse Level of detail (as its set to not show up at medium and fine).

I use a Shared Paramater LENGTH = Length, and then i drop a Specialty Equipment Schedule on the Life safety plan. I use family types to seperate the different "paths", and sort them that way so it tallies up my egress distances. It only gets hairy on stairs, hehehe...
