Use this dialog box to copy all or part of an existing profile.
Copying a profile can be useful when you want to design a profile that runs parallel to another profile in the vertical plane. For example, you can create a ditch profile that follows the shape of a centerline, but is at a lower elevation.
Displays the name of the copied profile
Displays a description for the copied profile.
Select one of the following options:
Copies the entire profile.
Copies a series of PVIs between two station values. Default values for the station range are the beginning and end of the profile. If a station equation is in effect, use the station equation values to specify a range
These options determine how the copy is used: either to create a profile or to overwrite an existing profile.
Replaces an existing profile with the specified source profile. If you select this option, use the drop-down list to specify the profile to be overwritten. To copy all styles, descriptions, and other attributes from the source profile to the specified destination profile, select the Overwrite All Properties check box. Otherwise, only the linear data is overwritten.
Copies the current profile, subject to any limitations specified in the PVI Range section. The name of the new profile is created according to the current naming template, like the name of any new profile. The new profile is superimposed on the source profile in the profile view. To work on one of these profiles without affecting the other, select it by name on the Prospector tab or in a dialog box. Control the visibility of individual profiles in the Profile View Properties dialog box.
