Hello guys, and girls

I have an issue with references to details. As you can see on my detail number 7 it is slopin paraleal to the roof so i can draw everything in real sizes. The problem is that if my detail section is sloping like it does it doesnt show on my roof plan where it is the most important place to be shown.

Any ideas?

In your "Roof plan" create a new callout and use the "Reference Other View" feature, the "other view" is that "section view" #7.

 

also, check similar threads bellow this page...

The reference other view option does show your actual details.  Please read your HELP.

I know it directs me to the actual detail and shows the references i need in the detail head. But by making this reference detail I have to position it at the exactly same location as the main detail. Never mind hiding it on intersecting views.

So my point is.  This is a workaround not a solution.

No - you are asking for a work around - You want to show something in plan view that is not really there.  The section cut is not normal to your plan view so it would be incorrect to show it as such. 

 

And it doesn't matter where you place it - doesn't have to be exact.
