    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!
