To Create Points at Polyline or Surface Contour Vertices Using Surface Levels

Points are not placed at polyline vertices that fall outside the surface boundary.

Because this command creates points using levels from a surface, the Prompt For Levels setting, specified in the Points Creation settings, does not affect how you are prompted during this command.

  1. Select settings and create styles, layers, point groups, and description keys.
  2. Click Home tabCreate Ground Data panelPoints menuCreate Points - SurfacePolyline/Contour Vertices.
  3. Select a surface.
  4. Select a polyline or surface contour.

    The points are placed at the polyline or surface contour vertices.

  5. If prompted, for each point, enter the point name and description.
Note: Many factors affect how the point is displayed. For more information, see About Controlling the Appearance of Points in a Drawing.
