Section Story Marker.

Anyone have a Section/Elevation Story Marker that activates "Story Handle Marker Custom Settings" ? Any area in Documentation that describe how it is done?

I may but I'm not sure what you mean. I started writing one when 10 first came out but gave up when I decided that the function was too limited, and that I didn't want to support two ways of marking elevations in sections.

Matthew,
I'm looking for possibility to local adjustments of the marker head. Right now all of them are located at the end of Section/Elevation, and either are shown or not. All of them (per side). I would like to be able to adjust their length locally (without changing the ends of Section Elevation).

Ah yes, I wish it were possible. Unfortunately the section tool does not use the dynamic hotspots and the moveable marker is only a feature of the elevation mode. You can make a parameter for an offset to be input numerically in the settings dialog which is better than nothing I guess.

You could probably do something wild like make the section an elevation and write the object so that it has two independent markers and a line connecting them. Ouch.
