Site Location in Z snap formation

[stuntmonkee]

Not sure if any of you will catch the In Living Color joke, but anyway.

On the site plan, when I label my topo lines. Is there a way to get a different starting location other than "0'-0". Such as FF on the site would be 8,947', and then the topos would go up or down based off of that number as opposed to 0'-0"?

I hope this is as clear as it doesn't sound. . .if that makes sense? :screwy: :grin:

Stunts,

Assuming your topo was drawn at the correct relative level, select the contour labels and then in properties, change the elevation base from relative to project.

So if Im not understanding correctly. . . .do you mean that I would have had to drawn everything at that elevation, or is there a setting that I can change to say what elevatoin the project is at?

Say you started your project with a Ground Floor RL at 0.000 and a first Floor at 3.000.
You then placed a topo with spot levels varying from - 2.0 to + 6.0.

You now decide that the correct relative level of the Ground floor should report as 59.6 say.

Use the Relocate Project dialogue in Settings.. Change the Ground Floor RL to be 59.6. Change the Level properties to report shared co-ordinates. The topo contours will also report the new coordinates if their elevation base properties are set correctly.
