    Question Bottom of pipe elevaion tag

    hi,

    I want to tag bottom elevation of Pipe ,but I am not find out bottom elevation parameter in Pipe tags family categories & parameters(which is present in Duct tag categories).
    The invert elevation tag parameter tags the elevation in relation to level 0 and currently I am working in -10 meter level.
    spot elevation also tag the pipe with relation to level 0.
    start offset & end offset parameter tags the center elevation of pipe.

    Is there any option in Revit MEP 2011 to place bottom of pipe elevation tag in any level?
    Any input would help.
    Thank you

    Regards

    Swapnil

    You can set the spot elevation tags to show a relative elevation (relative to the view) in the Type properties of the tag (as per attached image). You will need to set the view to Fine and Wireframe to get the tag to pick your pipe correctly I think.

    I built an add-on tool to achieve this. It auto tags the pipes at high and low ends. Have demo if interested...

    N8wex,
    i installed your add-in just to see what it did, now i get an error (Demo vesrion can only be used in file 'InvertLevel Standard Demo.rvt') every time i click a pipe.
    how do i uninstall or get rid of this add-in? i can't find it in the uninstall programs list nor the revit.ini file.

    I dont know about this one in particular, but in general the add-ins are registered via a .addin file located in the following folder:

    C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2013\

    If you remove this addin file it wont load (the addin file is an xml type file that will give you the name and location of the dll being referenced too).

    I would start here, of course as a programmer the maker of the demo could have done all kinds of fancy things...

    This file is no longer available. For additional information contact Dropbox Support.

    Please suggest. Thanks in advance!
