Macros For Elevation Dimensions? Is There Such A Thing?

Hey all,

Has anyone tried creating  macros for elevation dimensions like:  

 

Ridge

 

2nd floor plate ht.

 

2nd floor. HDR.

 

2nd floor Platform Ht. (Unfinished floor)

 

1st floor plate ht.

 

1st floor. HDR.

 

1st floor Platform Ht. (Unfinished floor)

 

Top of Stem wall

 

Bottom of Footing?  

 

Just wondering if it can be done and if it's worth having.. I always have to go back and reference the DBX for all these heights, if I had some macros on the elevation It would  at least jog my memory.  

 

Thanks for considering, and cheers!

Thanks Joseph, when you put it that way it does sound easier to just do it the old way.  I've tried Auto Elevation Dimensions, but It takes more time to figure out and discard all the dimensions I don't need than just doing them manually.

That's really a matter of going in to the Dimension Defaults and getting it set up right so you don't get so many extraneous dimensions.
