Got a basic question that i obviously don't know the answer to. Working in Revit 2015, when you begin a project, level 1 is set at 0'-0". I want to change it to 100'-0" and then the rest of the level elevations will have the 100'-0" plus height to it. Is it just that easy to highlight the level, click edit type, and switch it from project point to survey point? Then change my elevation number from 0'-0" to 100'-0"? I remember in the old days you highlighted the level, duplicate it and change its constraints to "Shared".

You can do exactly what you say.  Or you can simply change the level from 0 to 100.  But you will possibly also have to adjust the elevation callouts.  But there are better ways and now is a good time to learn them.  Watch this video.:
