    I try to explain what I want, my english isn't so good.
    I have a building. I want to put on hights on the facade. Hight of the
    roof , windows, etc..
    Is there an easy, automatic way to do this. I don't want to use dim. lines,
    just a symbol on the measured place and the hight.

    adt has a built in elevation marker, but as for text and the line from the
    elevation marker to the item you need to do that by hand.

    as an after thought, unless u make a block with attributes.
    also michaelB who posts hear often has a nice lisp routine that works for
    elevations.

  4. I have a little routine that will insert the Y coordinate in a leader of
    your
    current dimstyle on my site. You could modify it to just insert text easily.
    It's called HowHi.LSP. To make it really useful you have to set your UCS
    to something related to the real world.
