I'm trying to create a toposurface using an imported CAD dwg. I imported the dwg, used the toposurface-from import command, selected the dwg, and it gave all of the contour lines points, but those points were all 0'0". I don't have CAD on my computer, so I can't change the base drawing. Is there a way, within Revit, that I can set the contour heights without having to select each point and give it a height? Also, when I do get the correct elevations, how to I set the toposurface so that 5000 ft real elevation is at my base level of 0' 0"? Thanks for any help. Post edited on 2006-07-07 13:54:30
