I have an idea. I would like to be able to Data Sync / Reference specificly named feature lines.
My thought is to try to elminate all the redundant line work bewteen 2D drawings and 3D Model / Drawings.
What I would like to try to do is say I get a 2D Building Footprint from an architect. I would like to make an outline of his building footprint in my base site improvement.dwg. Lets say I decide to drawing the face of curb and edge of pavement for my parking lot. It would be cool to create feature lines out of these objects. Reference them into a grading surface base file to assign elevations to them. Same with the property line, convert that to a feature line and refence it into the grading surface base file. That was I can generate a match existing line from the property line, then with the building footprint I can assign a Finish Floor Elevation, Add those feature lines to a surface as break lines. My surface is now done.
The above would be the basic setup.
As I need revisions or move stuff. The surface would automatically be updated with the revisions I make in the site improvement base.dwg. If I add a vertx on the building footprint, it would sync over to the surface.
And if I can take it a step further, It would be nice to add a feature line Label that will label only the vertexs of the feature line. As a new vertex is created a new label would popup. (Maybe give the label different styles (Top of Curb and Bottom of Curb / Single Spot Shot Elevation / None).
Hopefully this makes alittle sense.
