coordinate system, the Z-value of the elevation label is recalculated
accordingly.
For example, you have a UCS named “First Floor,” with its Z-origin
at 3 m. When you insert an elevation label in WCS and set it to
2 m, and then change the coordinate system to “First Floor” the
Z-value of the elevation label is changed to -1 m.
6 If necessary, enter a prefix and suffix for the elevation label.
7 Click OK.
Creating an Elevation Label Tool
Use this procedure to create an elevation label tool and add it to a tool palette.
You may want to create your own elevation label tools if you are placing
multiple elevation labels of a specific style and they all have the same
properties.
Elevation labels consist of a multi-view block definition connected to a custom
AEC command. Therefore, the process of creating an elevation label tool differs
from the process of creating a regular object tool, like a door tool.
To create an elevation label tool, you need a multi-view block definition with
a custom command that is placed in DesignCenter
™
. Predefined elevation
labels are available in DesignCenter, so check to see if the desired elevation
label is already there.
If you find no elevation label meeting your needs, create one, as described in
Creating User-Defined Elevation Labels on page 3443, and place it into AutoCAD
DesignCenter.
From AutoCAD DesignCenter, you create an elevation label tool.
1 Click Insert tab ➤ Content panel ➤ Content Browser
drop-down ➤ Design Center .
2 Navigate to the folder containing the elevation label from which
you want to create a tool.
3 Open the tool palette on which you want to add the elevation
label tool.
