I don't suppose there is a way to do 'standard' autocad edits to my
corridor surface? I know I can export the surface from the corridor,
and then begin trimming and editing, but that saves little if any time
over doing my project within Land Desktop.
Is the correct procedure for grading the back of my lots along the lines
of specifying 'regions' within the model and assigning those regions to
attach to another finish grade surface?
Also, how can I list my contours?
Actually, why aren't my contours just polylines?
I understand Autodesk's desire to explore object modeling, and I applaud
their efforts. However, autocad is and was a primarily vector modeling
system. So by extending functionality by adding on objects, sort of
relegates the actual Autocad end to being a glorified viewer.
Civil3d at first glance seems great, and from a drafting standpointe
apparently it is the best thing in the world, and boy the draftsmen here
sure love styles.
But, wow, Civil3d sure slows down my design process, a lot. I'm
probably the minority in the world, probably noone else that reads this
newsgroup likes drawing their own contours.
However, I am hoping there is some magic switch I can throw that will
let me edit my corridor surface with acad tools (erase, drag and drop,
trim, extend, insert vertex, etc, etc).
Thanks if anyone knows about it. NUMA
