changing level heights?

For some reason, my ground level is set to 100' and level 1 is set to 102', so it's messing up my entire level heights.... How do I change the level 1 to be 0' ? I already have everything in the plan so when I try to change the "elevation" under view properties, it won't let me change it because of all the other things in the model.
Help please, Thanks!

Go to any of the elevation view and change the Level Height of the corresponding Level by double clicking on the level height.

Thanks for your help. I have tried that myself, but it doesn't work. It shows up to have errors whenever I try to change it. here is the image of how the heights are set up right now. any ideas?

You might have to reverse the steps...

 

Trying to change the level directly by editing the
Revit level won't work. (It might actually move the model and so, all your view
crops, etc may become wrong!)

Instead, while in an Elevation view,  go to Tools menu > Project
position/orientation > relocate this project...
and then click in the
drawing area and move your cursor up and enter 100' (or whatever distance you
want the levels to move)


Zoom all and view the levels, it would most probably not have changed. Select
the level head and go to its type properties and change its Elevation Base to
"Shared"

Hi

 

However, what if you don’t want to move the entire project, but only change 3 or 4 levels out of 9 🙂

Then only change 3 or 4 levels out of 9. Don't move the entire project.

You should know, that is not possible.
What if it's late stage main project ? You will get too many warnings, you probably won't even get to click OK .

So my question is, is there another way, a better way to get around this ?

Know what can keep constrains, what can break constraints, what need to be deleted and rebuilt, then you can plan the move. If you have anything specific that cause the moving problems then ask about them specifically, otherwise generic questions only get generic answers.
