Is there a possibility to use the automatic callouts and drawing title when you have for example a plan (-> callout of the particular section showing) + section (-> added drawing title to this section) on a single sheet? I have the feeling that AECOsim has a problem when the callout+drawing title have the same 'sheet number'+'drawing number' in two different bubbles but on the same sheet. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour, or am I missing something?
I don't follow.
I can place a plan a section and a detail and the title will place properly as long as the Model information is correct.
As you place the title on the sheet and NOT the Drawing Model.
The problem I have is a callout I place on a plan from a detail and making that 2-way link with the detail that may not be anything but a 2D file.

Eric, as the text is already technically enough, would it be possible to type in readable full sentences? I asume you are english native speaker...?

I place the title on the sheet and NOT the Drawing Model. It gathers sheet information, scale, etc for your bubble.
The problem I have is that when I place a BV, Callout, Detail (which is nothing more than a saved view ) on a sheet- the 2-way link does not work.
What I was trying to also imply was that the process of placing a callout, a section, a plan, is also the same process as placing a dumb 2d detail.Without some structure in creating all your files you may not have the MODEL information to fill in a title marker or any marker.
AND the information when available for a title or bubble is not FULLY 2-way so that changes are lost.
Well, the problem is not that it doesn't find the correct information, because it does fill in the bubbles for other drawing titles on the same sheet. And when hovering above the section callout it does show the correct drawing and sheet in the dropdown, so it recognizes the match between the section and drawing on the (same) sheet. It only doesn't know how to handle a duplicate 'drawing-number-inside-a-bubble' on a single sheet, I guess?!
Hey Eric, the usefulness difference between your original and your 'Retry' is large - any chance you could always write like the 'Retry' instead of usually as incomprehensible as the original? You're such a bright spark, it's a pity to be so hard to follow.
