Use this dialog box to assign elevations when creating feature lines from objects. You can access this dialog from the Create Feature Lines dialog box.
These options override the elevations of the objects that you are converting to feature lines.
- Elevation
-
Assigns a fixed elevation to the feature line.
- From Gradings
-
Creates a temporary surface from selected gradings to compute the feature line elevation.Note: This produces the same result as using the From Surface option and selecting the grading group surface.
- From Surface
-
Assigns elevations to the feature line from a surface in the drawing. Select the surface from the drop-down list or click
and select the surface in the drawing.
- Select Intermediate Grade Break Points
-
Inserts intermediate grade breaks when the entity crosses surface TIN lines, creating elevation points at these locations.
- Relative Elevation to Surface
-
Specifies whether the feature line elevation is relative to, and dynamic to changes in, the surface. If you select this check box, you can also specify whether you want the feature line to be created above or below the surface elevation by specifying a value in the edit box.
