Hopefully this is a simple question...

Originally my project was at elevation 0.00.  It now has been moved to elevation 100.00.  I used to the project relocation tool to move my project up to 100, and then changed my levels to reference the "shared" coordinates.  My foundation tags are still referencing the old 0.00 elevation (project elevation I think, if I am understanding correctly).  So my question is, how do I change my structural foundation tags to reference the "shared" coordinates? (eg. display 96.33 instead of 3.67)

Thanks.

You can edit the units of this in the family.  Pick the label then in the GUI click on the parameter then the #(Hand) icon at the bottom.

The family already is unchecked where it says "use project parameters."  I am not trying to edit the units.  I am trying to change which set of coordinates the family references.

select one of your spot elevations, go to element properties, select edit/new. scroll down to elevation origin and change that to shared.  that should do it mate

i got mixed up before.  I wasn't using spot elevations.  It was some custom family that didn't give many options.  I just got it worked out using spot elevations tho.  thanks.
