Projecting Alignments as Vertical Lines in Cross-Sections

Hello,


I have some cross-sections that depict a beach nourishment job. They show the existing grade (EG) survey and the proposed finished grade (FG).


As with all cross-sections, they are drawn with sample lines that are drawn along an alignment. This alignment is called the RBL.

 

What I need to do is show 2 other alignments (the CBL and the LLOF) on these cross-sections.


I can't seem to find the right way to get these onto the cross-sections.

 

Is there a way to show a vertical line representing the alignment on a cross-section? The goal is for the cross-section to show a vertical line at the proper offset.

 

See below figure for an example of what I am trying to achieve.

Note: the CBL is shown as desired. I achieved this by making a near-vertical surface. I'm wondering/hoping there is a way to achieve this result using the alignment directly.

 

 

Thanks for any insight!

I don't know of a way to project alignments to sections view. You can create feature lines from alignment and profiles and project those to sections views. If you select the dynamic link option when creating the FLs they will be dynamic.

The video in the link below shows how to add alignment markers to a section view. It starts at 24:53 in the video.
