builtright3 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I cant figure out how to make these calout labels in the schedule bigger so I can read them. When I did make them bigger it change the callout size for them on the section view and I dont want that. Any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Just use the "Schedule Number" instead of the Callout. That's of course in the first column. OTOH, you could try making that column wider. That might make the Callout bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I make the column size bigger this is what happens This is from another plan that I did and so I know it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe, I think it has something to do with the way I have the section layers setup becasue the callout size in the section should match the callout size in the schedule. That is the way it is in the other plan I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The layer / text style was creating the problem. Perhaps this is the solution: Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I save them in the libuary I can only see them when I put the note in the plan. I may have to see if there is an updated video on how to use notes.

In my case I had my text notes as a separate CAD detail. (I think this is best practice per forum advice). That's what DB Cooper was referring to. The settings of this CAD detail were affecting the text note text sizing. Hope that helps. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to do it as a cad detail in the past but it had its disadvantages also. I only like to put notes and details in the plan that have to do with the specific project so boiler plates don’t work well for me. This is why I utilize the library a lot. The NOTE schedules are a nice idea but seem to have a few glitches that are frustrating. Thank you for the help, Jim, I really appreciate it.

A lot of Chief things are still a bit of a mystery to me, but I'm enjoying the program. It's pretty nuanced. Jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
