Draw Line along surface
Hi,
I need to draw a line on a road surface that consists of 3D-Faces (yellow in the picture), so that the z-values follow the shape/profile of the road surface. The position (ie x and y values) of the line is given by an existing line with a z-value of 0 (blue line in picture). What is the easiest way to do this?
The wanted result can be seen with the red line in the background.

If I understand the issue correctly then _projectgeometry should do what you're looking for.

A possible approach:
extrude the blue line so it becomes a vertical surface that intersects the yellow 3D-faces, enable 3D snap to intersection ( = 3DOSMODE flag 32768)
and draw the desired line by snapping to intersection points.That being said, if you happen to have a V20 Platinum license, please note that it offers a set of new Site tools that make creation and use of Alignments a pleasure: see
