Spot Elevations: Gap From Host?

Anonymous
Not applicable

 

se.JPGHi,

 

I am wondering if there is a way to allow a slight, CONSISTENT gap to the spot elevation families. I've attached an image of the issue. As you can see, the line goes through the wall, to the soffit I have. I need to have no annotation lines intersecting the actual building. I already have an independent symbol to use, but I'm trying to save a little time by trying to find a solution to this issue. Is it as simple as a parameter? Even if the gap isn't consistent, as long as I can modify the end point of the SE without making it a symbol, it would make life easier.

 

Thanks!

Isn't that a Level (not Spot). Levels can break in the middle (click on break line icon).

This is just a workaround if you are looking for.

You can put a " Filled Region " in " Spot Elevation Target fill

to get the gap between elements and spot elevation..

I have shown two fill region for example..

 

PS.. you may need to keep a duplicate and use it for your specific Spot Elevation.

Else this target fill will affect many places.
