You may have to trim out what you don't need, but what is there will be correct.<br /><br />Even if you want to create the catalog manually, comparing it to an interface exported one will make the problem more apparent.<br /><br />Be aware also that if you're nesting generic annotations in structural framing families in Revit 2015+, there are a bundle of serious issues that occur. Update releases/service packs fix some of the issues, but not all. Kepler is also problematic.<br /><br />-MattMatt Taylornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-14875140202650289122016-03-11T16:45:36.180-08:002016-03-11T16:45:36.180-08:00Bwahahahaha.
