    Create a detail compenent and insert into your family. Annotation symbols wont show in elevation.

    Do you see ANYTHING in an elevation view? Maybe just a line representing the plan symbol? I'm thinking (out loud) that the annotation symbol needs to be added to a left/right view in the family so it will show in an elevation view.

    Just like Matt said. You need to add the annotation or symbolic/model lines in an elevation view of the family.

    I am having trouble with this as well... I get the following error:

    "The selection can’t be pasted because it is not visible in this view.
    Common causes and solutions
    The category is not visible in this view (make category visible)
    An annotation element falls outside this view’s annotation crop (temporarily disable annotation cropping)
    The element tagged by an annotation is not visible (check view extents and depth)"

    I've gone into the V/G settings into the family however, every annotation category is checked. Any ideas???

    Thanks
