There is a formatting discrepancy between our project's levels and spot elevations in section.  The levels have been adjusted so that Finish Floor is set to 100'-0" (using Relocate Project feature), but I can't figure out how to do the same for spot elevations. 

Now, when I call out a horizontal reveal in elevation using the spot elevation tag, it still says 8'-0" instead of 108'-0".  Is there a way to correct this so that the formatting is the same throughout?  I don't want to have to reset the project elevation back to 0'-0".

I tried that, and it is still displaying without the 100'.  Besides the "Rolocate Project" feature that I already used to set the project's elevation, is there another tool that I'm supposed to be using as well?  Perhaps "relocate project" is only a halfbaked version of the full process that I'm not following?

Here is what was done so far and it worked only on project levels but not spot elevations:

Manage/Project Location Tab/Position/Relocate Project

Click the Level bubble

Move the bubble up 100'-0"

Go to Properties, Edit Type, and change from Project to Shared
