Displaying actual height above sealevel - how to?

Kamelite

I have a project where project basepoint is 55200mm above sea level. Unfortunately, I didn't know that until yesterday, and my client would like the storey-heights shown i sections to reflect this. What is the easiest way of making this happen?

In the image below, Gateplan means street level, and it should be 55,2m, not Zero. And, is it possible to add information to the height? I want to add MOH after the height, (it means meters above sealevel)

This is in AC22, if it matters

.Thnx a lot

I would open a Section > point the cursor over the Story Line > right click > Click the "Edit Story Level" command > Drag the Story Line (With one of the 4 options available) to the desired level.
Hope this helps.

First you need to set up your project sea level in menu Options / Project Preferences / Project Location

After choose to show sea level in elevation markers settings.

This is the easiest and fastest way.

Entering sea level works for me. Any chance of adding text like I described in the first post? Adding MOH after the height?

Instead of using the section/elevation markers, place level dimensions and you can add all the text you like and use different levels (project zero, sea level, reference levels etc).
