Product Documentation
Intermediate

Use the Datum command to change the elevations of selected drawing points.

Updates points that were set, according to an assumed elevation, to a benchmark elevation. If a point has no elevation value, its elevation is not adjusted.

Note

Use the Point Editor to edit point elevations individually.

To change the elevation of points

  1. In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, click the Points collection to display the Points list view.
  2. In the list view, select the desired points. For more information, see Selecting Items in a List View.
  3. Right-click and click Datum.
  4. In response to the prompt, specify a change in elevation by doing one of the following:
    • Enter a change in elevation. To specify a decrease in the elevation, use a minus sign (-) before the value.
    • Enter R, for reference, then enter the old and new datum elevations. The points will be modified by the differences between the two values.
