Hi everyone.
I don't know if this was in a previous thread but I'll ask anyway. I need to know how I can show my earth line to be a thick one on the elevations.

Thanks

Try by accessing View Properties, Visibility, Model elements, Topography, Cut line (or something like that), and override the cut line to a big number.

There is no such thing, use linework

Visibility Graphics > Object Styles > Topography. Modify Cut Line Weight.

I think what Mike meant is to use the Settings-->Object Styles-->Topography and under LIneweight/Cut, change that to a larger number for a section to show a thicker linewieght, or change LIneweight/Profile for an elevation change to topo lineweight.

This assumes that topo has been placed into the project.

Settings|Site Settings| Turn off section cut material, Set poche depth to 1"

Thank you but nothing seems to work. You can't even use the linework tool. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

The poche base at1" works for the section only. Elevations are the problem.

Check to make sure the Topography category is visible in your elevation view.

Yes, it's visible.

And you can see the Topo surface in the elevation view, i.e., you can select it in the elevation view? Is your Elevation clip plane cutting the topo?

Thanks, it did work. You were right, I had to move my elevation line.
