In the Properties Editor, you can use the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset property to move an elevation marker horizontally along a wall segment. The horizontal offset is defined relative the start of the i-Line. The start point is the drawing start point for that wall segment. For example, if you draw the i-Line left to right, the start point will be the left edge of the i-Line.
If you enter a positive value in the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset field, the elevation marker moves away from the start point of the i-Line. If you enter a negative value, the elevation marker moves back towards the start point. In these example images, the i-Line start point is on the left.
When we enter a positive value of 10", elevation marker B moves away from the start point of the i-Line:
When we enter a negative value of -10", elevation marker B moves back towards the stat point of the i-Line:
To Change the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset

If you want to move the elevation marker away from the start of the i-Line, |
type a positive value (for example, 25"). |
|---|---|
If you want to move the elevation marker back towards the start of the i-Line, |
type a negative value (for example, -25") |
6.Press Enter or click outside of the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset field.
For your selected elevation(s), the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset updates. In this example, the left side of the i-Line is the start point. In the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset, we typed a value of 25", moving the elevation marker away from the start of the i-Line:
After you change the Elevation Marker Horizontal Offset to move an elevation marker horizontally along an i-Line, you can adjust the Elevation Marker Vertical Offset to move the elevation marker closer to or further away from the i-Line.
