How to label contour lines on mesh?

Anonymous

Hi all - I was wondering if there is a way to sort of "auto label" the contours on a site that I created using the mesh feature? Or maybe a way you can click on the line(s) and then it gives you the datum information? Thanks so much and happy new year

You can use the level dimension tool (spot level) to place a level dimension on any part of the mesh.
Or you can select a node on a contour and in the pet palette you can choose the adjust height option to see the height of that contour - cancel so you don't adjust it.
