Level Symbol Properties

Current tab

On this tab of the properties dialog box, the absolute and relative height are displayed. These value cannot be modified.

Absolute height

Displays the height value (z-coordinate) relative to a zero level.

Relative height

Displays the height value (z-coordinate) relative to the AutoCAD World Coordinate System.

Global tab

Datum level

Defines the zero level. A global height is assigned to the World Coordinate System origin.

Example

If the site zero is at 1500 above the Sea Level, enter 1500 for the Datum Level.

For all level symbols placed in the model, the Relative Level is measured from the site zero. For example, for a level symbol placed on a beam 4000 above the site zero the Relative height will be 4000 and the Absolute height will be 5500.

Note: All level symbols in a model share the same reference level (Datum Level).

Default tab

Symbol size

Defines the size of the selected level symbols, in model units. Newly created symbols will have the new size, by default.

Display type tab

Off

Hides all selected level symbols.

Standard

Displays the level symbols in the Standard representation.
