Elevation tags everywhere!

Place an elevation tag in an enlarged floor plan only to discover that it also shows up in the regular floor plan?  Sick of hiding each one individually in all views?

There is a parameter within the elevation tag labeled: "Hide at scales coarser than".  Set this parameter to the scale of your enlarged floor plan (1/4"), and it will disappear on all views with a scale coarser than that (1/8").

Unfortunately, this parameter is not able to be set up via a view template, so you must set it for each elevation tic mark.  Hopefully though this will save you some tedious repetitive 'hiding in view'.  Doing it this way means it also hides on every view.  Saving you the task of having to go to every view it appears on and hiding it manually.
