To Edit a Surface by Moving Surface Points

The points you move are not modified in any of the existing surface data components. The move point operation is added to the surface definition. This operation does not require the surface points to be visible.

  1. In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, expand the surface Definition collection, right-click , and click Move Point.
    Note: TIN or grid volume surfaces do not support editing operations.

    At the command line, you are prompted to select the point you want to move.

  2. In the drawing area, click the point.

    You are prompted to select the new location for the point.

  3. Click the new location in the drawing.
  4. Optionally, repeat steps 2 and 3 or press Enter to end the command.

    The moved points are added as Move Point operations to the Edits list view in Prospector.

    Note: The Description column in the list view displays the coordinates of the old (from) and new (to) location of the point.
