i need to transition from a proposed to a future linetype part of the way down my profile. It's the same surface, just that @ station XX+XX.XX it becomes future. I need it a diff linetype to faded back, for example. Is there a way to do that? I'm thinking my only option is two create two surfaces, one propsed and one future. My situiation currently is that I already have one complete surface and would like to know if it's possible.
thanks for any help in advanced.
You could create two surface profiles with separate station ranges and then apply different styles to them.
If I understand you. You have a "surface" profile you wnat to show (say) hidden from station A to sta B, and (say) continuous from sta B to Sta C.
Yes it can be done. create two surface profiles from A to B and another from B to C and set the profile style accordingly

I could see how this could work, but I already have my project setup. If i delete my surface it will cause problems throughout. Let's say I don't want to start over. Can I break my profile and leave, say, point "A to point B", creating a previously none-existing point "C-D?"
Nobody is suggesting that you do anything to the surface, only the profiles. Unfortunately you cannot change the station range of a profile after it's been created so you might have to delete the surface profile you already have and create two new ones.
If we are talking about layout profiles then yes you can copy, rename it and then edit both of them to only display the appropriate station range. The problem here is that you're going to screw up any corridor that is using the original profile. You'd have to create a new corridor baseline that uses the second profile and then recreate the original design.
You want to alter the "display" of the profile not the profile. you do not even have to delete the original just clear the check box on the profile tab.

Well now, in attempt to create what I invision, I have a list of "trial" profiles in my list when I select view profile properties. Is there a way to remove them?
so now i have created two new surface profiles, but lose all my PT's and previous labels. Is there a way I can preserve them as to save time?
can you post a drawing? I'm getting confused about what is is you are trying to do.
