Plan is not real...

[rgarand]

Hi all,

I am having trouble with the way my plan displays. I am attaching an image and it should tell most of the story. Is there a way to show that this particular fdn wall is stepped, in plan?

I understand that it will not show a slope in plan...but the plan should show elev. changes, (i.e. a line in plan, meaning the wall should not clean up) shouldn't it? I understand that I can add new layers with different intersection group numbers...but I am sure you will all agree that this could get quite cumbersome.

Any thoughts on this subject?

TIA

If you want to keep walls from cleaning up (without resorting to the layer trick) just make sure the reference lines don't meet. In your example you could put them on alternate sides.

Matthew,

It worked like a charm! Thanks for the tip.
