David O'Donnell Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I am using land Desktop3, survey3, Civil Design3. I'm at a loss to find the tutorial showing how to determine & shade the 20% slopes on a surface. Could someone explain the proccess? Also I imported contour lines, but I can't seem to get them to be a "surface"..any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 1 The shading options are buried away in the styles you can do things like shade the contours not sure about slope though. 2 just bringing in Contour lines could mean just that you have a bunch of lines, you have to create a suface model from your lines, its an option under surface definition autocad objects. Are the lines all at 0.0 elevation ? then your stuffed. Not really its another posted soloution on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
