Hi Everyone...

Does anyone know of a way to get a Level to read the Geodetic and Project elevations on the same Level Head / Family???

I have tried to explore and manipulate the Level Head family but we are limited to what parameters can be used, and there is no option to create shared parameters.

Please see screen capture for reference.

Thanks in advance.

Currently, there is no way to do this without "faking it" You could create a spot elevation with no head, and place the other coordinate system in it, placing one on each "level" in each view.

The reason this is not available, is that you have to declare what coordinate system to display in order for the system family to display it correctly. System families have alot of automation, but few options, to preserve the integrity of the Revit database.
