robdyck Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I know this has been discussed a lot, but I'm wondering if there's a simple method to get an elevation marker in plan view to display a room's floor elevation in the format shown in the image? I can figure out a bit of the number formatter thing, but I can't get it to return a floor or ceiling elevation. The automatic macro returns this value in inches and the same thing is true for the data in a schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Just to frustrate you Chief does this for some strange reason. But I think you will actually need to write a proper macro to do that using the Measurement Class. Shoot me a PM if you get stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched your video, but seeing this (combined with the info in your video) is helping to make sense of how the NF works. I had something very similar but was getting an eval.. error and that's because I was inserting the room macro in those brackets. I appreciate your help. What NOT to use: %room.elevation.ceiling% %room.elevation.floor% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say it would have occurred to me to use the %height% macro in plan view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Thanks Eric, That seems to be a big step in the right direction that appears to work rather than chiefs teaser %heightf% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
