Is it possible to define a different ZERO level for a specific view?http://content.screencast.com/users/zuzullo/folders/Jing/media/6c2b1e55-b2a3-400d-8d07-421c819bc96a/2012-03-14_0901.png

We use two level types - one with elevation base project (for the building) and one elevation base shared (for landscape). Then you specify coordinates on a level to get the contour heights correct.

By "level types" you mean "a type within the family" right?

But either I select SHARED or PROJECT, it returns the same value!

It only works if you have two sets of identical levels and fiddle with the position and coordinates and visibility until it displays what you want. The other way is to use spot elevations disguised as level annotations.

I do not know if there is a right way to do it.

But the spot elevation will always show the +55,000 instead of 0,0.

Can you describe a bit more how do you get the spot elevations to be disguised as level annotations and show a different value?

Draw house with project level set so ground floor is 0. Set shared height for ground floor with manage-coordinates so ground floor is (say) 65000.

Label the level with a spot elevation. Select - duplicate - symbol none - text size same as level, background opaque - elevation origin:shared. Move spot elevation annotation so it hides level annotation.

Not clever but better than just writing it in
