amddrafting Posted Tuesday at 05:13 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 05:13 PM They are not... they are in the defaults and in order to change it for your annotation set you have to change it in the defaults and then "save your active defaults" to a new set. And you can't overwrite your current set so you have to make a new one with a different name, delete the old one and then rename the new set back to the old name. This is how it looks in the plan file... Here's where you have to change it in layout file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Create a "Redlines" annotation set for revision clouds and text that can be easily set for making notes to give to my staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in case you didnt know, redlines notes can actually bind to objects in the z axis in a 3d view so you can make 3d notes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use a team to review out layout sets for each other and rather than putting it in the plan file itself we find it easier to add notes to the layout sheets and delete them as they are addressed. However, having an annotation set makes it easier than having to copy paste to keep the red text, etc. Just an efficiency thing. Just think if we have annotation sets in Layout we should have arrows associated the same as in plan files... seems like common sense to me really.

Never noticed it was missing before but I agree with you that it should probably be there. Did you send Chief a bug report or feature request? I am pretty sure they won't respond to a random post like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
