Detail Tool

How do you use the detail tool. I place detail markers on the plan and then when I double click on the detail in the explorer a window comes up, but it is blank.

ensure that you're 'creating a new detail drawing window' rather than just 'linking to an existing detail'.

if you are - check that you don't have any fill handles miles from the detail content itself - thus making the detail window so large it seems as though the content has disappeared . . .
