Detail callout instances

Detail callout instances associated with a detail viewport can be added to or deleted from design layers or viewport annotations. In addition, the Detail Callout Instances dialog box provides an easy way to navigate from a detail viewport to its associated detail callouts.

1. Select the detail viewport whose detail callout you want to navigate to or edit.

Parameter	Description
Viewport	Displays the name of the selected detail viewport
Design Layers tab/Viewports tab	Displays the names of all design layers in the file (on the Design Layers tab) and all other sheet layer and section viewports in the file (on the Viewports tab). Each design layer or viewport that contains a detail callout associated with the selected detail viewport has a check mark to the left of its name.
Activate	When a design layer or viewport with a check mark is selected, navigates to the detail callout instance: ● If the detail callout instance is on a design layer, activates that design layer and centers the detail callout on the screen ● If the detail callout instance is in a viewport, activates the sheet layer of the viewport and enters annotation editing mode for the viewport

3. To add another instance of the detail callout to a different design layer or to the annotations for a different viewport, click on the column next to that design layer or viewport. Alternatively, to remove a detail callout instance from a layer or viewport, click the checked column (which removes the check mark).

Deleting all detail callout instances does not delete the detail viewport, and new instances can be created at any time. However, deleting a detail viewport deletes all detail callout instances.

4. The detail callout instances can also be used as a navigation tool to access a particular detail callout. Select the design layer or viewport where the detail callout instance is located, and click Activate to switch to the detail callout location; the detail callout is selected for any modifications.

To return from a detail callout instance to the associated detail viewport, click Navigate to Viewport from the Object Info palette of a selected detail callout.
