checked for the labels.

10. Save the family as Custom Elev Pointer.rfa and load it into the Custom Elev Head
.rfa family.
11. Place four instances of the Custom Elev Pointer family around the intersection of the vis-
ible reference planes, as shown in Figure 4.44.
When this custom elevation tag family is loaded into a project and associated with an
elevation type, it will function much like standard elevation symbols.
After the views are placed on a sheet, you get a preview of the completed elevation symbol,
as shown in Figure 4.45.
