I believe not, you can copy detail lines between views but copying them onto a sheet might not be possible because it is not considered a view. That said I could be wrong because details lines are just 2D elements and you can draw 2D elements on sheets. Try it out and let me know!
As far as I know, when using the line commands, the default option is going to be the basic line segment. I am sure there is a way deep in the API where that could be changed as it is coded into the program. Unfortunately, that is very far outside of my expertise haha. So I think we are stuck with selecting the arc after hitting DL but let me know if you find of another way.
@@ArchitectureVanguard I'm creating a lighting plan, so the Arc Wire (EW) command is okay. I prefer the "Start-End-Radius" way of drawing arcs but I've found this somewhat useful. Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately you cannot join detail lines together into a single line like you can in rhino. The closest you can get to that is selecting all lines at once by pressing tab over one line.
Life changing for a plumber
Nice, that's great to hear!
Is it possible to have detail lines drawn in plan and import them into sheet views ?

Is there a way to make detail lines appear in a shared file when another file that was linked into it (shared) has them?
Only model elements would, so you could use model lines instead.
@@ArchitectureVanguard Yes, I also figured it out on the latter part. Thank you!
Can I draw arc by default, or do I always have to select the arc button after issuing the DL command?

Thank you.
No problem!
best!
Thank you!
Great video
Thank you!!!
Is it possible to create a circle with smooth edges
Yes, there is a circle option in the types of lines you can draw.
BUT HOW DO YOU JOIN THEM TOGETHER TO MAKE A PROFILE!!!!!
Unfortunately you cannot join detail lines together into a single line like you can in rhino. The closest you can get to that is selecting all lines at once by pressing tab over one line.
I don't have the circle or arc option in my revit only lines and polygons. Can anyone help?
That is interesting, I have not seen that before. You might start by restarting Revit.
How to measure a inclined detail line?
You can always use the measure tool if you are in a 2D view. Details will not appear in 3D, so you should always be able to measure them.
