Don't use SEO . instead offset the rim (the line that follows the natural ground) of the excavation by 1mm, and this line select to add points with no surface fitting. The nodes of the second line will get zero z values. Then select this embeded line on mesh and give all the nodes the elevation you want them to have. So you will have two embeded lines on the mesh. One that follows ground and represents the rim of the excavation and a line offseted by 1mm, with certain and common node levels that will represent the toe. And this will show correctly the sudden drop.
I have drawn a mesh and cut out an area by using a slab and SEO's with upward extrusion. This has left a bit of a hole in my mesh. Is there an easy way to smooth out the mesh around the cut around the building? the only way i can think of is to draw extra contour lines and add them to the mesh to show the fall of the ground towards the building. Im hoping theres an easier way!
