When it comes to being productive and efficient in Revit finding little ways to NOT have to update annotative elements is key. For example, if you use a detail line set to "" and simply draft the canopy above a first floor entryway you will have to adjust that line work EVERY SINGLE TIME you move or adjust the canopy. I have created a little trick to make those overhead lines automatically updated with your canopy.
How does it work? Well, it's pretty simple... The "above line trick" means that overhead line you see in the first floor entry of your canopy above is the actual edge of the canopy model element.
