Use the Prospector tab to paste a surface into the current surface.

Note

TIN or grid volume surfaces do not support editing operations.

For example, if you have a building pad surface, you can paste it into a full-site surface. The building pad replaces that portion of the site surface that it covers.

To paste a surface into the current surface

  1. In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, expand the surface Definition collection, right-click , and click Paste Surface.
  2. In the Select Surface To Paste dialog box, in the list of surfaces, select the surface that you want to paste into the current surface, and click OK.

When the surface is pasted into the existing surface, the command adjusts the overlapping area to the elevation and contouring of the pasted surface.

The operation is added as a Paste Surface item to the Edits list view in Prospector.

Note

The Description column in the Prospector list view displays the name of the surface that was pasted.
