Changing the Location of an Elevation Line
Use this procedure to relocate an elevation line by changing the coordinate values of its insertion point. The elevation
line also has an orientation with respect to the WCS or the current UCS. For example, if the top and bottom of the
elevation line are parallel to the XY plane, its normal is parallel to the Z axis. You can change the orientation of the
elevation line by aligning its normal with another axis. You can also rotate the elevation line on its plane by changing
the rotation angle.
For information about the world coordinate system (WCS) and the user coordinate system (UCS), see “Use World and
User Coordinate Systems in 3D” in AutoCAD Help.
TIP The quickest way to locate and view an AutoCAD topic referenced in AutoCAD Architecture Help is to click the Search
tab in the Help window, select the Search titles only option, and then copy and paste or type in the AutoCAD topic name,
and click List Topics.

relocate the elevation line
make the normal of the elevation line parallel to the Z axis:
under Normal, enter 1 for Z, and enter 0for X and Y.
locate the elevation line on the XY plane
make the normal of the elevation line parallel to the X axis:
under Normal, enter 1 for X, and enter 0 for Y and Z.
locate the elevation line on the YZ plane
make the normal of the elevation line parallel to the Y axis:
under Normal, enter 1 for Y, and enter0 for X and Z.
locate the elevation line on the XZ plane
enter a new value for Rotation Angle.
change the rotation of the elevation line

Click OK.
To update an existing elevation created from this elevation line, see “
Updating a 2D or 3D Elevation
” on page 1828.
Modifying an Elevation Line Using Grips
Use this procedure to change the start point, end point, or edge of an elevation line. You can drag the grip to the desired
location, or you can enter a specific value for the measurement.
