TIN surface contour color

Hi,

I have TIN surface. And I have set contour color by layer. If "Elevation" setting are turned off surface countors are by layer. If "Elevation" setting are on, contours becames of color set in color scheme. I have attached images of it.

Can I keep my contour colors by layer if I turn "Elevation" setting on?

Elevations refer to the Elevation Analysis, and the colors are dependent on how you set up the analysis. Your contours are controlled by the major and minor contour display settings.

You could try taking your contours off layer 0.

Yes this is it.

But it's odd they made it like this.

If contours are in layer 0 or the same layer as surface, contours will be in color of elevation first color. But if contours are in deferen layer they will be in color of layer.
