Beam Annotations Tool - Autodesk 24000-000000-9860 - Revit Architecture - PC User Manual

Beam Annotations Tool

The Beam Annotations tool allows you to place multiple beam tags, annotations, and spot elevations on
selected beams or all beams in the current view. It is only available when working in a structural plan or
ceiling plan view. Structural Framing Tags that are set to Rotate with Component must be loaded for the
dialog to launch.
To access the Beams Annotations tool, selecting Drafting Beam Annotations, or click on
the Drafting tab of the Design Bar.
Placement
The placement section of the tool allows you to specify which beams you intend to annotate (either all in
view or just the beams selected). As noted on the Beam Annotations tool, Revit Architecture does not overwrite
existing tags.
To place new annotations in place of others, select the Remove existing beam tags and spot elevations option
box. All tags and spot elevations will be removed from beams and replaced by those currently set in the
beam annotations tool. When deselected, no annotations will be placed on the beams
Placement Settings: The button opens the Placement Settings dialog which adjusts the offset of
tags and spot elevations from beams.
