    Default Spot elevation tag: current level is not current?

    Hello all.
    Can anybody explain me why my Spot Elevation Tag measures elevation from Level 1, not from current level which is Level 2 (please refer to image attached for details)?
    Thanks beforehand.

    Hi,
    It's because you are marking the spot elevation in the section. You need to tell Revit which level you are referring to - change the relative base to Level 2 and it will work.

    Hello, Maciej.
    Thanks for responding by post.
    Unfortunatelly I can't "tell Revit" which particular level I'm referring to as Relative Base parameter within View Properties tab provides me with to options only: Current level and Level 1. Can I add Level 2 that I'm referring to in this list somehow?

    When you place the Spot Elevation, if you are using a Relative type, you can change the Relative level in the option bar

    Here's a picture of what dhurtubise said, you just need to change it from 'Current Level' to a specific level. How is Revit supposed to know in an elevation which Level you want to reference? Actually you marked the thing you need to change already - try it!

    (I thought I'd add that because I've never used Relative Spot Elevation - so now I know how they work too ... )

    Duncan, dhurtubise,
    Thank you very much for your answers and sorry for not responding them for long time. Unfortunatelly I can't do what you recommend because my Spot Elevation properties tab provides me with 2 options only: Current level and Level 1. Building consists of 4 levels: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Roof Level. My Spot Elevation tag refers to object located on 2nd Level, so Current level for this particular instance is Level 2 ... but Revit thinks that Current level now is Level 1. I don't understand, why. So, issue is open so far.

    Can you post the model? I can only see 2 levels from the initial screenshots
