    Hi,

    1st i am not a acad-specialist. But i am have drawn my house beginning
    with the 2nd floor in which i life. With drawing the basement and the
    fist floor i wanted to change everything in the 2nd floor to a
    evelation of 3.05 meters higher.

    But i realized, that changing the evelation only effects only on new
    objects even if i delete the original 2nd flow elements and redraw
    them.

    Is there a way to change the evelation of all 2-Dimensional drawn
    objects to a specified height ????? In fact i want to change a
    2D-Drawing into a 3D-Drawing.

    HiHo;
    I don't what cad program or version of cad program you
    are using, but, if it's AutoCad R10 or greater this will
    do it for you.
    "MOVE" select all objects that are to be elevated.
    "Enter"
    "0,0,0"
    "0,0,3.5" this will move objects to elevation 3.5.
    enter the commands inside the " " marks without " marks.
    Again, if you are using AutoCad the " 'FILTER" command
    can make a selection set of the objects to move and at
    the "select " prompt of the MOVE command, enter "P".
    Preceeding the FILTER command with a ' will allow
    it to be used transparently.
    Hope this helps you. Happy New Year

  3. MOVE>>Select objects>>Enter>>0,0,0>>0,0,x

    where "x" is the amount of the move in the vertical (Z) dimension.

  4. -change
    (select the objects that you want to change the elevation of)
    Choose [properties] at the next prompt
    E (for elevation)
    Then type in the height that you want the line to be at.
    T (for thickness - (more like height really - don't confuse thickness with
    weight)
    Then type the height that you want to extrude these elements by.
