Greetings.

Is there a way to fuse the legacy tin external references into your surfaces? I do not want to have to send out the extra files to clients. Just want to send out the DWG.

Thanks

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "legacy TIN external surface", but if you are trying to convert a DREF into a surface defined inside the current drawing instead of in your DREF drawing, promote the reference (right-click on the surface in Prospector and select "Promote").

I was just looking at a surface created from a tin file. I found that when you do this the file size it huge. What you want to do is extract the points from the surface and then re-create the surface using the extracted drawing objects. When I did this my file size was cut from 8.5MB to 2.0MB.

Wait, external reference? If that's the case, I'd just copy and paste. Or bind and burst.
