Rotating Spot Coordinates And Spot Elevations With Components - Autodesk 256B1-05A761-1301 - AutoCAD Revit Structure Suite 2010 User Manual

Interior Tick Mark: designates the tick mark display for inner witness lines when adjacent
segments of a dimension line are too small for arrows to fit. When this occurs, the ends of
the short-segment string flip, and the inner witness lines display the designated interior tick

Rotating Spot Coordinates and Spot Elevations with Components

When spot elevations or spot coordinates are applied to line-based host components, they can be set to
orient to the component and not the horizontal default. Line-based host components are those elements
placed by defining a start point and an end point, such as Structural Walls, Walls, Beams, Braces, and Trusses.
The Rotate with Component parameter must be selected to enable this tool.
To set spot coordinates and spot elevations to Rotate with Component:
1 In the drawing area, select the spot dimension (coordinate or elevation).
2 For a spot coordinate, click Modify Spot Coordinates tab
drop-down
For a spot elevation, click Modify Spot Elevations tab
drop-down
3 In the Type Properties dialog, select Rotate with Component.
4 Click OK.
The spot coordinate will not rotate with a component as shown in the images below.
