Elevations only show as a marker head in version 18

Anonymous

In all previous versions, the elevation marker showed as a marker head and a line. In version 18, there is only a marker head. In contrast, a section line still shows the marker head and the line.

I hope that explanation makes sense.

How do I get the elevation line to show up?

Thanks!

We changed this default setting in the AC18 USA version because it was confusing to many new users what these lines actually were. Notice if you select a marker the lines will be highlighted and you can see the extents of the elevation.
