(Corridor) Feature Line Smoothing

I've been researching the options to deal with tessellation of my corridor.  I see the option to extract feature lines from the corridor and to maintain a dynamic link.

 

I've now found a link in the docs for converting tessellated lines to arcs.  Can I use this command with a dynamically linked FL?  And will it maintain the dynamic link?

Hi
No I do not believe you can a dynamic feature line has vertices at where ever the section frequencies in you corridor generate a section. To smooth out the surface around corners use surface smoothing and box out an area around the curve and increase the tin mesh to say a 0.5m grid in the box. Check out Jason hickeys au paper on corridors from au 2012 he explains the process

You'll notice that when you select a linked feature line the Modify Geometry tools on the ribbon are greyed out, so, no, you won't be able to fit curves on that object.
