half foot contour ranges

I have a surface I have contours set to 1 for minor and 5 for major. Is there a way in Civ 3D to show one half foot contour? I have a surface that ranges from 126.5 to 137. I only want to show the 126.5 contour, as it is the bottom of my pond. so it would go 126.5, 127, 128, 129 etc.
thanks in advance

Have a look into 'user-defined contours' on the analysis tab of the surface properties. You can set whatever elevation(s) you want.

Be sure to check that the surface style is set to display these user contours.

i need to keep my contour intervals at 1 for minor and 5 for major. I only want to add the 1 contour, which is 126.5. if i use the surface analysis i have to change my minor contour interval to .5, i dont want to show all of the .5 interval.

MMcall is on the right track, you need to use a user defined contour, which
is found on the analysis, not to be confused with a contour analysis, you
will need to make sure your style is setup to show user defined contours.
