One of our municipalities requires that we hide the contours within the ROW.
Then, we add spot elevations every 100 or so feet.
Any ideas on how we can make either a surface style that hides the contours
within the ROW- but doesn't take the data away so that I can still grab
elevations off?
How I do it now...
I build my corridor surface
I build other mini-surfaces like SWM Ponds, lot grading objects, etc.
I make a composite surface that includes all of the above.
I make a hide boundary with ROW lines.
But then what is the point of having the corridors in there... hmmm..
Some work arounds I have considered (but none of them quite hit me as the
right solution)
1. Make two composites- one that includes the corridor and one that doesn't.
hide boundary on the "one that doesnt"- but then I have a lot of surfaces in
the dwg.
2. Use a wipeout object in the ROW- sometimes hard to manage, but maybe not
too bad...
