Displays the available options when placing or editing elevation planes.

Properties

Activates the Elevation Planes Properties Dialog.

Position

Specifies the elevation location of the elevation plane in reference to the Up (Z) origin coordinate of the specified design coordinate system.

CS

Identifies the design coordinate system to which the plane belongs. The origin of this coordinate system is used to define the position of the elevation plane.

Type

Specifies the type of elevation plane. The types of elevation planes are defined in the reference data.

Reference

Defines the reference plane from which the elevation plane is referenced.

Offset

Specifies the offset between the reference plane and the elevation plane that you are creating.

Copies

Type the number of elevation planes to create using the specified Reference plane as the starting point and the Offset as the distance between the elevation planes. This option is only available when placing elevation planes.

Nesting level

Defines the nesting level for the elevation plane. You can select Primary, Secondary, or Tertiary. Between two adjacent planes, a difference of only one level is allowed. Therefore, secondary planes are only allowed between two primary planes. Similarly, tertiary planes are only allowed between two secondary planes.
