Hi,

 I have just created a toposurface that has an elevation around 300m above sea level.

How do I make my levels relative to the topography?

For example...let's say Level 1 is 300m and Level 2 is at 305m.

I want the Level 1 to read 0m and Level 2 to read as 5m.

Thanks!

You will have to either drop the topo down to 0 and label it as 300, or keep the levels at 305, etc...

Any other suggestions?

Yes, there is plenty of info on how to move the levels. But I cannot find any information on how to make my level 1 at 300m be read as the 0m line. Can this even be done? or will the level always display the actual elevation...

If you go into the properties of a level marker Elevation base can be set to project or shared.  Set it to project.

Ok! Thanks! I now understand how its working. What's a bit bothersome is that my topography moves when I set the project location....but i guess it;s just the order of how i set this up...
