I am a structural engineer who frequently works on small platforms, pipe rack, and walkways. We will typically have multiple t/steel elevations that we want to call out on our drawings, but as we have transitioned to Revit I noticed that the elevation markers require unique names and end up with a level mark in the label. In the attached example, it would be the "L03" and "L2A" in the t/steel line. I would like to remove these from the drawing because it is irrelevant information for the contractor or fabricator, but I would still like to keep the elevation mark smart enough to update if an elevation changes. So, is there a way to disassociate the label for an elevation marker from the level name? Is there a way to add a smart elevation bubble that isn't the level tool? Or, are we stuck adding "dumb" linework? Thanks in advance for the help!

Check out the Spot Elevation tool (Annotate ribbon tab). That's intended to call out discreet elevations conditions. Levels are best left for major vertical datum, top of steel and/or floor to floor relationships. It's not uncommon for architect's to use levels for floors and structural engineers to use a level for top of steel, offset from the floor. In that situation you end up with a pair close together, yours and theirs. Different Level types can carry different annotation graphics and information. A combination of careful use of Levels and Spot Elevation annotation ought to help.
