If you right click on a surface name there is the option for create a
snapshot. What is it and why would I want to use it?
Thanks

if this is the command i am think about, it basically saves and restores this position for recall later. how its used, if you change drawing orientation, you can restore it back to that location or a location of interest that you have created.
there is also another function that uses the term snapshot, and that is when you are working with blocks, and you create a slide to preview inside of symbol manager.

One of the ways you can use a snapshot is when dealing with landxml. If you
create a surface in civil 3d from landxml the landxml file gets treated
almost like an xref, if the landxml file were to go missing at some point
then you would find you are unable to rebuild the surface definition. The
snapshot stores the current state of the surface and allows that to be used
for future rebuilds even if the land xml file isnt available anymore.
That is one of the reasons it exists.

So in my file management efforts, I chose to move the xml file to a new subfolder. My surface now shows the camera icon on the definition. How can I re-path or tell the surface where I moved the xml file to?

If you open Surface Properties->Definition, in the window below, you see the Operation Types that have been used to create that surface. on the Right, you see the Parameters, links for point files, xml's. There is a Browse folder icon at the end of the line, use that to change file path. After that, Snapshot will be out of date, you might need to rebuild that too if you need that. That can be done in Toolspace->Surfaces->Expand the surface and right click on Definition->Rebuild Snapshot.
