The section symbol in plan view should be align-able. That is, I don't want to rotate it to be in line with an angled wall. I just want to hit align just like I do with pipes and ducts. Any idea how to make it happen? I tried to edit the section family so that I could make the section line a model line or something I could grab while in the align command, but it doesn't give me the option to edit. Thanks Joe

Place a couple of sections on a sheet... stay out in your view.... move your title and watch what happens. Revit will give you alignment lines automatically. Just don't zoom in - this is not AutoCAD.

Actually, I'm trying to align the section line (head, line, tail) in a plan view (inside the model). I think it's also called a section marker. The section box on a sheet is ok...i can align that. Thanks

You can rotate the whole section cut... line head tail... just click on it and rotate. To align with something - just move your rotation point to a line on that object and rotate to another point along the object's line.

well I guess this should be on a wish list of some sort. I know how to rotate the section marker. That was a huge step in the right direction which I learned about several months ago. It would be quicker if I could use the align tool to do the same thing. Thanks anyway!
