Are we talking about typical curb and gutter? If so, I'm scratching my
head head over the fact that your BOC has gutter elevations.
I'm trying to remember if 2006 had the stepped offset command (it will
be in the edit feature lines menu) If not, you can still do it.
Here's how:
using the AutoCAD offset command, offset your gutter line horizontally
some small distance (I use 0.01' or something like that) to give it a
slope and not a vertical face. Now, go into the feature line elevation
editor for the new feature line that you just created, and raise each
PVI (you can do them all at one time) the correct distance (around here,
0.5') You can now offset THAT feature line 0.5' horizontally to get
your back of curb.
Stepped offset command takes all those steps and combines it into one
command - I like it berrer.
