"Error adding breakline" message when editing surface with feature lines

Hai,

 

I am working on a 6 mile highway project whose surface file is 85MB big. So, I created a Data Shortcut of this surface and used this for creating profiles. However, at some locations the corridors go below the surface(as per their original profile) which was not intended. So, I need to restrict the surface to follow the corridors but not go beyond it.

 

I have created feature lines from corridors and tried to add them as breaklines to the surface. But " error adding breakline" error pops up. 

 

Is it because I am trying to add the breaklines to the mirror surface which I created from Data Shortcut ??

 

Will it be helpful if I copy feature lines to original surface file and add these feature lines as breaklines in that file??

 

I have attached screenshots of steps I have been following. Kindly help me out with this.

 

Thanks in advance,

You will need to copy those feature lines to the original surface file. You can not edit any data shortcutted object. You can only edit those objects in their original file.
