Hi,
Running into multiple problems with elevation markers . In this file i have the model units set to mm:
The elevation marker is set to Meters:
If i change it to mm or another unit it loses its appearance:
Then,
Even if it is set to meters it doesnt understand that my model units are in mm so it still shows elevation in mm (instead of meters - see first picture)
I need the model units to be in mm and the elevation markers in meter.

Hi @Jens_Jacob_Melhus_J1 The step in teh Grasshopper Style Wizard where it asks you for the Definition units is to select in which units was the Grasshopper definition created.
In the case of the Elevation Mark in VisualARQ templates, the original definition was made with meters, so you better don’t change it, otherwise the dimensions of the elevation mark symbol will be wrong.
Hi francesc,
Thanks for the reply. And is there a way to show the elevation in meters while the model units are in mm?

Hi Jens,
Yes, in your GH definition in meters, you can divide the elevation value by 1000, so this way it will be displayed as if they were meters in your millimeters file.
Hi Fransesc,
I’m not sure i understand you. I dont have my own grasshopper defintion. Im using the one that comes standard with the visualarq template. I tried to find the visualarqs grasshopper definition for the elevationmarker in the visualarq folders but couldnt.
I thought i solved by doing this:
But didnt work either.

Hi Jens,
Find attached the Grasshopper file used in the Elevation mark in VisualARQ templates. I’ve divided the elevation by 1000, so it will show up in meters in your mm document, when you create a new annotation from it (or you can update the existing one “Elevation mark”. In that case, do right click on it and select “Edit…”).
