Remove a data operation permanently while retaining the AutoCAD drawing objects (for example, polylines or points) on which the data operation may be based.
There are two methods to remove a data operation from a surface:
- Delete it from the Prospector list view.
- Remove it from the surface operations list in the Surface Properties dialog box.
To delete data from the surface definition using the Prospector list view
- In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, expand the surface Definition collection and click the collection from which you want to delete data.
- In the Prospector list view, right-click the list item and click Delete.
- Click Yes to confirm the deletion of the selected breaklines.
To delete data from the surface operations list
- In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, right-click the surface and click Properties.
- In the Surface Properties dialog box, click the Definition tab.
- In the Operations List, right-click the operations that you want to delete from the surface and click Remove From Definition.
You are prompted with a warning to confirm the changes that you made to the surface definition.
- Click Yes to confirm the changes
The surface is rebuilt with the deleted operations excluded.
