    - Create a new empty TIN surface
    - Expand the surface definition area in toolspace until you can see the surface edits.
    - Right click and select Paste Surface.
    - Select the EG surface
    - Repeat for the corridor surface. Your new surface will be a merge of the two.

    What is up with the duplicate posts lately and why do I seem to always reply to the one that has no discussion on it?

    p.s. This is not directed to you, paorconsult. It just seems to have happened to me a lot lately

    The surface created by the corridor exists as a separate object, but all of the definition data is part of the corridor properties. When you rebuild the corridor, the surface automatically updates.

    You can use the surface just like you would any other, including a paste operation into a larger surface - or you can detatch it from the corridor and it will become a static object.

    Once the merge has been made I notice any changes you have made to the “Point Label Styles” are reset; is there any way to keep the changes made to the label styles after the merging of the two surfaces?
