Subregion not following the topography

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I made a subregion on my topography but some area of the subregion are not following the topography. Instead some part are under the topography as you can see in the picture.

There are only one topography in the model and i have tried to remove the subregion and redraw it.

Do anyone have a suggestion to how to fix my problem? 

Thank you!

Did you modify any points on the toposurface after creating the sub-regions?

Hard to tell from that image and hard to re-create... can you upload that topo surface?

Very strange looking.  Hard to tell what I'm looking at.  There's not another Toposurface? Maybe in another Phase?

Can you post a Plan View and Cross-Section Screenshot?

Thank you for your reply!

No, I havn't modify any points. In fact I havn't do any changes in the model. The last thing I did was to draw the subregion.

Thank you for your reply.

 There is only one toposurface and everything is drawn in the same phase. The first subregion i made that suppose to show the road is working fine. But the second subregion I made (looking like thick lines) is the subregion I have problem with.

Here is a video. Not really sure what i have done wrong.

I am unable to re-create the same misalignment...and from just images I can't really guess what happened on your end to get that misalignment

Did you try to Cut and Paste "aligned same place"  or  to Delete the subreg and recreate it to check if the issue persists

Yes i have tried that and it didn't work. 

I deleted the stripes and I drawed a big rectangle over the toposurface just to see if the form of my stripes is the problem. The rectangle over the toposurface was working fine. So I made the stripes 50 cm thicker to see if it would help. Some of the stripes is now "fixed" but not all...

Can you post the file @Anonymous ?

Yes ofc

Try to split it into 2 or more region...stripes are too thin and too long to process accurately 

• Use copy / paste from clipboard better than re-placing the sketch lines again 
• leave a +/- 5cm gap between the two regions ...if they overlap they could/might recreate the same problem

Thanks @Anonymous. May I ask what this Subregion is suppose to be in real life?  It's can't imagine. Dozens of 1/2 ft. wide X approximately 1000 to 1500 ft. long "stripes" spaced 1/2 ft. apart?  

Anyways, an approach you can try would be to Edit the Host Toposurface and place a lot more points in and around the the area of the Subregion . Place these points at ZERO Elevation RELATIVE TO SURFACE. Each point you place will create another triangulated surface - which is what you need more of to be able to host this Subregion properly.  

..go to Visibility and Graphic Overrides=>Topography and turn on Triangulation Edges. Those are what you are creating more of by adding points to the Toposurface.

Why don't you use railing with a 1/2' wide profile rail and host them on the topo to create the stripes?

Ofc. A client want some illustration of his property and the area with the "strpies" will be an apple orchard, like the one in the picture. 

OK, I will try that. Thank you for your help!
