To Create a Detail in the Current View Drawing

Use this procedure to place a callout that creates a detail in the current view drawing.

Viewing building section detail boundary

1. On the Quick Access toolbar, click Project Navigator.
2. Click the Views tab.
3. Select the view drawing in which you want to place the detail callout, right-click, and click Open.
4. On the Tool Palettes, click (Properties), and click Document.
5. Click the Callouts palette.
6. Select a detail callout tool.

   If you want to …	Then …
   create a callout with a detail boundary and a detail mark	select one of the detail boundary tools. AutoCAD Architecture 2022 toolset provides tools for circular, rectangular, and freeform detail boundaries.
   create a callout without a detail boundary	select one of the detail mark tools. AutoCAD Architecture 2022 toolset provides tools for regular detail marks, detail marks with a tail, and detail marks with a sheet number attribute.

   Alternatively, you can click Annotate tab Callouts panel Detail Boundary drop-down for callouts with a detail boundary, or Annotate tab Callouts panel Detail drop-down for callouts without a detail boundary.

7. If you selected a detail boundary tool, specify the extents of the detail boundary.
8. Specify the detail leader line, and press Enter.
   

9. Under New Model Space View Name, enter a name for the new model space view containing the detail.
10. If necessary, select Generate Section/Elevation.
11. If you want to add a title mark to the model space view, select Place Titlemark.
12. Select the scale for the model space view.
13. Click Current Drawing.
14. If you selected to create a detail with a section/elevation, specify the insertion point of the 2D section/elevation result.
15. If you selected to create a detail without a section/elevation, specify the extents of the model space view containing the area being detailed.

    The extents of the model space view will dictate the default sheet view size, so if the model space boundary is too small, you may have problems placing annotations in it.

    Once the model space view has been placed in the drawing, the field placeholders in the callout change to a question mark. To resolve them, the model space view needs to be placed onto a sheet.

    The model space view is displayed in the Project Navigator under the view drawing in which you have created it.
