Adding a range to a cut/fill banding surface

Good morning, all...

 

I've created a cut/fill banding surface in order to see areas of extreme elevation change in our design drawing. Unfortunately, I didn't take my ranges high enough to account for the most fill needed. I only made them to a max if 3 feet of fill, and I need four. Anyone know if I can add a range to my surface without starting over again?

Yep, I know I can do that...I just was hoping I could "append" my ranges and not start all over again....

One of THE most frustrating issues with the use of banding especially when using volume surfaces which change often. It's astounding to me that after about a decade of using this tool there is still no way to save banding styles/ color settings/ranges. I can't imagine it's a major challenge for the developers. We use a LOT of it and I think my hands are now able to almost automatically type in the color schema and increments almost without looking.

I'll go along with that. I don't mind re-doing it, but for whatever reason, my cad runs super slow while assigning range values. I have rebuild off and so on, but it still takes forever...
