Greeting. (RAC 2011)

I have seen several posts regarding similar questions, but none that have answered this specific one:I wish to modify the spot elevations to identify the insulation thickness on the roof, such that the roof drain reads "0" and all other elevations read "+XX" (above the drain). 

I can get close, the relative setting will show the elevation relative to the current view (level). Please see attached image. But the bosses really want to see the elevation of the built-up roofing relative to the drain. Is this possible?

Sure - as a dumb tag that you fill in.

... so the closest I can get is an elevation relative to the particular level? Bummer! (thanks)

If you model the thickened roof like foam it should pick this up with a elevation tag. A lot of work though.
