    is there a way to get a group of 3d polylines to elevation zero all at the same time. a 300 foot long 3dpoly i have might have a couple hundred grips on it. i converted them to features and was going to do it that way, but thought i'd throw out a post and see if anyone had any sugg.

     

    thanks.

    it seems as though this command is just destroying my lines. see image, 3d view. there is nothing sent to 0, relayered or anything.

     

    thanks, Joe.

    Another method is to use Civil 3D's Grading > Polyline Utilities > ConverT 3D to 2D Polylines.

    The command is CONVERT3DPOLYS.
