A callout tag is an annotation element that marks the location of a callout in a parent view.
Use the Family Editor to create a callout head family to define the shape of the callout head and the information that it contains.
In a project, create a callout tag to specify the callout head family to use and the radius of the corners of the callout bubble.
To define the callout head and the corner radius of the callout bubble, click Manage tabSettings panelAdditional Settings drop-down, and select Callout Tags.
The callout tag consists of the following parts:
Callout bubble. The line drawn around part of the parent view to define the callout area.
Leader line. A line that connects the callout head to the callout bubble.
Reference label. For reference callouts only. Text displayed in a callout tag to provide information about the callout.
Callout head. A symbol that identifies the callout. When you place the callout on a sheet, the callout head displays the corresponding detail number and sheet number by default.
