The other sheet (i.e. 1 – Front Elevation) will open. On the View List tab, right-click the "2 – Left Elevation" view. From the shortcut menu, select the "Place Callout Block". Click the only available block. Place the block somewhere on the sheet. Ctrl-click the hyperlink on the block. The other sheet will open. Save and close both sheets.
