Now, I'm going to continue working in a floor plan, but you can add symbols to any view that you'd like. So, let's start with the Symbol tool. We'll get there on the Annotate tab, and it's over here on the right-hand side, simply called, Symbol. Now, when I click that tool, you'll see that over here on the Type Selector, there are two families currently loaded. There's a Centerline family, and a North Arrow. So, what I'm going to do is add one of each of these. So, the Centerline, I'm just going to place above the plan kind of generically in that location there, and I'm going to use North Arrow-1, and kind of place that down right here.
