Depicting alignments on a section view

What is the best way to depict other alignments within a section view? For example, I have several alignments that are left and right of the centerline alignment used to cut cross sections, and I would like to give the offset and elevation of where those alignments cross my section view. I have tried projecting a polyline that is drawn on top of my alignment to my section view, but I get an error: "All objects in the pickfirst set were filtered out, please select again."
Thanks!!

Creating a Feature Line from your polylines and you can project those to the section views.

Thanks. That is precisely what I have done, and it seems to be working well. One thing to add to the copious C3D wishlist: add other intersecting alignments to multiple section views, dynamically linked to the alignment!
