Can't find Terrain Settings tab

Anonymous — Mon, 22 Jul 2019 16:29:12 GMT

I have contours displayed in a view but I can not get the elevation text to appear. The Infraworks help file (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/infraworks/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/ENU/InfraWorks-UserHelp/files/GUID-35D2D2AF-69AF-402D-9E10-CAD21A15EFBC-htm.html) instructs the reader to click the Settings button, from the Views menu then click the Terrain icon as shown here:

However, when I click the Configure Current View icon...

... There is no terrain-shaped icon nor any of the terrain settings shown in the Help file.

Am I looking in the wrong place for the settings?

What version are you using? It's not the LT version is it? Do you have Model Builder?

Todd,

I do have Model Builder and should be working on the latest release of the full version. Where would I find the version number? I don't see it under Help where it is usually found.

Thanks,

Version number is found in the Application Options>About. The current is 20.0.25.0.

Todd,

The version number is 18.2.54.0. We won't be going to the 2020 Autodesk product until the fall.

Thanks,

Hi Jon,

Can you go to a 2019 version? That version has all the terrain view settings.

Regards,

Harry

Hi @Anonymous ,

that's the explanation - version 2018.x does not have the terrain icon in the view settings.
It was a new feature for version 2019...

Karsten.
