Use Elevations Correctly (Don’t Fake Elevations With Sections)

1. If you need a façade view, use Elevation, not a section placed far away.
2. Create an elevation:
   • Place an Elevation marker aligned to the target wall.
3. Adjust the elevation extents:
   • Drag the elevation crop boundaries and depth so the correct area is included.
4. Understand behavior:
   • Elevations behave like a type of section, but should remain categorized as Elevation for proper control and documentation standards.
