Elevation Labels and Coordinate Systems
Elevation labels are interactive multi-view blocks used for dimensioning heights
in a drawing. They are anchored to either the world coordinate system (WCS)
or a named user coordinate system (UCS). Elevation labels are used primarily
for measuring the heights of building elements like walls or windows, but they
can be used to measure every point in your drawing. You can add elevation
labels in plan and section views. AutoCAD Architecture offers a number of
predefined blocks for commonly used elevation labels. You can also define your
own elevation labels.
When elevation labels are moved along the Z-axis, their Z-values change
accordingly. Elevation labels can, however, be anchored only to a named UCS
or the WCS; not to any building object. If the object height is changed, the
value of the elevation label is not updated automatically.
An elevation label measures the height of a point with relation to the reference
height. The reference height can be taken from the Z-coordinate of the WCS or
the Z-coordinate of a named UCS.
