    <description>&lt;P&gt;Spot elevations need an instance custom text field so we are able to add descriptive indicators like T.O. WALL or B.O. JOIST when tagging elements within the project.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It would be very helpful to add custom text below the leader line on spot elevations.&amp;nbsp; Typically we need to define what a spot elevation is referring to (top of wall, typical height, top of steel, match existing, etc.)&amp;nbsp; While a suffix can be added, it isn't very distinct from the elevation, and it makes the spot elevation tag undesirably longer.&amp;nbsp; Adding a setting to allow an instance based (or even type based) text field below the spot elevation would be very helpful.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Sorry, I should have clarified (and yes those work). Most people prefer to be able to put the descriptor on a separate line than the elevation to shorten up the length of the tag.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The ideal situation would be if we could infill the lower or upper value with text independent of where the elevation height shows up. In your example, if the lower value was not greyed out and I could input T.O. WALL there, that would be great.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Darin_CWP_0-1634832906952.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/980122iB29B3BDF762D2D38/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Darin_CWP_0-1634832906952.png" alt="Darin_CWP_0-1634832906952.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Totally agree that it's simple, easy, and ridiculous to not be included, especially when it's a drafting standard and users have been asking for it for over a decade.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3128749"&gt;@Darin_HDR&lt;/a&gt;, It might help if you edited the original post to add your clarifications from your comment.&amp;nbsp; I'm also going to post a link to this in a thread about this very topic.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It should also allow you to have the elevation value on the bottom of the line and the text on top of the line.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;+1 on the concept of being able to have custom instance-parameter text on one line (above the leader seems like industry standard), and the actual elevation info below the leader (per Darin's screenshot above).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It's should be a basic parameter or activated option in elevation or section views. I am surprised why does Autodesk shouldn't activated spot elevation tag in such views.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
