    Default Remove Extruded Height in 3d

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi there,
    I have topography that I would like to flatten.
    THey are extruded polylines. 1' elevation.
    How do I remove the 3d element.
    Currently I do copy face explode, pedit, join.
    There are many steps to do this.
    Isn't there any easy command for flattening
    something in 3d?

    THanks a ton!
    Candace
