    What? no elevation tags

    Is this true? How do you propose we communicate this information to the
    field. They do not walk around with headgear yet. If there is not a utility
    to tag elevations of all 3D objects (top, center and bottom with insulation
    and without). This information is critical to the field. we can not do
    section views for every thing on the plan. I am speaking from an installers
    position.
    Just to push the envelope further these tags could be linked to the objects,
    and when the objects move they move with them and update if the elevation
    changes. I know some may think this is pie in the sky dreaming, but AutoCAD
    is very powerful.

    If this sounds like something you could use. this is good time to say so. If
    we do not ask, we will not get.

    Sorry if this seems like it is bashing. Its not it is a powerful
    productivity tool that I have seen in other software, well not the auto
    update in elevation.
    Please use plain text.

    Hi Joe -

    Elevation tags have been added to ABS 2004. What can be done to improve
    them?
