Hi All,

I was wondering if it was possible to change the length of a section tail. I would like the tail to extend past the top of my wainscot. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

In the browser, expand families, annotations, you will find a section tail somewhere in there.  Open this, edit it, save it as a new type, or add parameters to it and make it parametric, load into project.  Go to manage tab, select additional settings, section tags.  Create a new type, or modify an existing one, select for the tail the one you just modified/created.  Go back and look at your view, adjust until you have the desired results.

Just grab the tail and drag it to where you want.  The tail and the view crop are sperate after initial placement.
