About point elevations in Novapoint Terrain

• Point elevations are blocks with the insertion point in the “+”-sign. The z-value for the block will always be equal to the written text.

• The leveling tools are a set of functions working within the dwg file as well as interacting with the active terrain model. Editing and calculating point elevations must be done by using the leveling tools only. It does not work to use AutoCAD functions like move, copy, copyclip/paste, properties, attribute editor, etc. in order to edit or manage the appearance of the point elevations

• Styles for point elevations and slope arrows can be created and managed inside New point elevations setup.
