Calculated sections|Create line

From the cross sections it is simple and fast to create 3D lines in a plane drawing. You can either create them in an existing, currently open drawing or a new drawing.

There are five different ways to display the cross sections in a plan drawing or a DTM:

  • Create lines in plan one by one
  • Create multiple lines
  • Create line for the outer slopes edge
  • Create cross sections in a plan view
  • Create a DTM

From section:
Select the section from which you want to create plane data from the drop-down list.
