I would like to widen the gap between the horizontal line and Story Level like in the AutoCAD image.

Built-in Storey Marker, line part 2 is the angled bit (1000), which you would probably never use anyway.

File => Libraries & Objects => Open Object by Subtype... => General GDL Object => Ducumentation Element => Drawing Symbol => Marker => Story Marker => Built-in Story Marker

 

I do not think "Open Object by Subtype" is on the menu be default and would need to be added manually to your workspace. It is the generic storey marker that is included with AC and used when there are no others available. How any of this translates to the Korea menu is a different question...

Just add another story in between with a low height.

Are you talking about the space between where your drawing crops and where the marker is?

I can't find it.
Is there perhaps no gap between these?

I never use story level markers, only the line itself. The story levels I create with the dimension tool. You can put the dimension string wherever you want, add level dimensions to things that aren't stories etc

 

Creating an extra story for the sake of a level dimension will mess up your model down the line when you need things like stairs to display on home story and one story up, not to mention the hassle of adjusting stories just for the level dimension to move up or down.

Oh, you are wanting an actual gap between your storey grid and your storey marker... you would probably need to code that into your storey marker. If you do not use the completely useless marker angle setting, you could probably just edit the default marker and delete the drawing of linepart2.

thank you
What you're saying is that you can increase the spacing, but you can't use spaces like I thought.
You need to change gdl.
I understand.

Barry, don’t you feel like there are a few story options?
I feel a little uncomfortable.

1. There is no word to add after the floor name + "SL"
2. When used in one apartment building, the left and right numbers are different
How do you use the 19th + 20th floors?
3. How do you prevent floors and horizontal lines from being displayed where only the story name is displayed?
4. Isn’t this the case in other countries?

I don't know.

I don't use the built in storey level lines or markers.
