Use the Site Settings dialog to control the display of toposurfaces.
This video demonstrates the following:
The display of toposurfaces settings is controlled in the Site Settings dialog. Use the options in this dialog to control contour intervals, section thickness, and label settings.
In order to better understand the contour interval controls, first label the contour lines. On the Massing and Sites tab, select the Label Contours tool. Draw a line passing through the contours you want to label by clicking two points. The contour labels are positioned along this line, oriented from the perspective of an observer looking in the uphill direction.
To access the Site Settings dialog, click the dialog launcher on the Model Sight panel. In the Site Settings dialog, you can modify the contour line display by adding contours. To do this, click Insert. Change the Start, Stop, and Increments values and select the desired Range Type and Subcategory. Then click Apply to see the changes.
In this example, a primary contour is displayed at 1000 millimeter increments. A secondary contour is displayed at 200 millimeter increments.
On the Section Graphics panel of the Site Settings dialog, a material is specified for use when the toposurface is cut in section.
Click the browser button to open the Materials dialog and to find a new material. The thickness of the toposurface when cut can be changed with the Elevation of poche base setting.
If you have added property lines to your project, the Angle Display and Units can be adjusted on the Property Data panel.
Use the Site Settings dialog to control the look and the units of the toposurface elements in your Revit projects.
