elevation (offset) from level

elevation (offset) from level

Need readable parameter of elevation(offset) from level..

 

Generic model, Plumbing Fixture and other have elevation parameter but you can't read this parameter as tag or in shedulles.

 

 

 

Thx.

Add this already! This has been a request for 5+ years. This is as industry standard as you get and not being able to access this information in tags or schedules is not BIM.

Here are some similar ideas. The last one was implemented in Revit 2020:

Without creating a level, I would like to be able tag an object's elevation in section. For example, the ability to call out the bottom elevation of a beam in a wall section without adding a level is useful, especially when it is an anomaly or critical to the design. Currently, I use a dummy tag for these items.

Doesn't the spot elevation tool do this?

True but I would like to use the same elevation tag used for levels. Graphically, it is easier to read the various elevations when they are all in the same format. Essential I want a spot elevation to look like the level tag with ability to add a name on the top line with the elevation on the second.

You can use your level head as a spot elevation symbol. Just edit it and change it's category. I can't think of an easy to format the text the way you want though. I think that might be worth asking for.
