Strange behavior with Offset & elevations for sections views

[Anonymous]

Hello everybody. 

I'm working  on section views. 

I want to use 30 meters  using "user specific > follow a section"

I'd expect to have my cross sections in the midel of this 30 meters high area but that is what I get.

Yes, I have 30 meters but C3D seems not to vertical-center the view on the section I choosed.

Any idea ? Thanks,

As you can see the sectons are not centers . The automatic option works fine in this example..

Try the Mean Elevation height option.

So, then does this option fail?

The "Follow a Section" choice uses a user specified elevation carried through along the sections, "Mean Elevation"
 uses the middle or average of each section. So no it didn't fail.

"a user specified elevation"

Where is the place I set that ????

Here is the Help explanation of what it's using, A section is selected from a list during section view creation:

Follow A Section:

Specifies that the elevation is set from a particular section. Select the section from the Select Section list.

So it means that the elevation is taken from which elevation of section selected ? The mean ? the min? The max ? 

What  I (and every normal human)  would  understand is that for every station  C3D use the mean of height of section and then use the elevation range, placing the sections in the middle.... isn't it ? 

What I have seen is that C3D seems to select  some strange min or middle  height .... as you can see in my first image.

Have you tried the option and get a good results ? Or like me, get a strange space distribution ? 

Thanks

Did you try the "Mean Elevation" option? It will center the sections vertically in the section view.

By now the only option that works fine for me is "automatic". 

Other fails always, I have no time to spent thinking whats going on.... 

Jay'B (or anybody) can you test  that "user defined option" gives a min height for every individual section view is agree with data sources ?  I think I have some strange error.... 

In adittion,  "Automatic option" how many height uses ? Where can I define it ? 

Thanks
