paulg Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 A Town I Do A Lot Of Work In Allows No Development On Slopes Greater Than 20%. Does Anyone Know An Easy Way To Do This? We Use Autocadd 2007. I've Tried Terrain - Surface Display - Slope Settings - Then I Get Lost. We Do Huge Photogrammetric Surveys For Subdivisions And Small House Lots And Its Killing Me Not To Be Able To Simplify This Procedure. Please Help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Simplify what procedure exactly? So that AutoCAD automatically shades any slope that is drawn as more tha 20%? or so that it won't allow a slope to be more than 20%? I think we need a bit more information here.. And just a note - all the capital letters, it makes it difficult to read..and I'd imagine to write as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alan Cullen Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Tiger..... Any existing slope greater than 20% (1 on 5) slope cannot be developed....so he wants to shade those slopes so he exclude those areas from his development plan. It's a pretty common procedure here..... Paul....does anyone in your office have software like 12D Model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustysilo Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Have you tried that fancy little button in your "surface slope shading settings" box that says "Help"? Sometimes we tend to overlook that button.:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David O'Donnell Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm having the same issue. If you can decipher how to even find the subject in the tutorials, you're a better man than I. Put slope & shade in tutorial search box and you get contour Settings info. Neither word is mentioned there....go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
