Many of Revit m E p families use a nested annotation symbol to provide the standard graphics we are used to seeing in electrical documentation.

Revit does have a bias against short lines (as most of us are well aware). In my experience this appears to work for most families such as annotation, detail component and generic model families.

Well, when you're in the family editor you can draw symbolic lines, model lines or reference lines. Model lines will show in ALL views because they are part of the model. We also use model lines as a quick way to "represent detail" in some families. When you're in the project you can draw detail lines or model lines.

Each drafting view we imported had a copy of the break line family. By the time anyone noticed, the project model had “Break Line (1)” through “Break Line (22)”. Revit sees multiple versions of the same file being loaded from different local files (users) and seeks to protect them by renaming the other versions it encounters.
