Add level marks in drawings

A level mark represents the elevation of a point. In addition to the automatic elevation dimensions that you can define in the drawing properties before creating the drawing, and the elevation information in the grid labels added in the model, you can also add manual level marks in your drawing to ensure that the dimensions are correct.

  1. Open the drawing.
  2. Hold down Shift and, on the Annotations tab, click Level mark.
  3. In Level Mark Properties , modify the content and the appearance of the level mark.
  4. Click Apply or OK to save the properties.
  5. Pick a start point for the leader line and a position for the mark.
Note:

Shortening value added in the user-defined properties of a part also affects level marks.

  1. Elevation dimension in the grid label
  2. Elevation dimension created with Add level mark in the drawing

You can also add level marks in GA drawing plane views. In this case, you might want to leave the leader line out.
