Along Line Snap

Use this command to specify an elevation using the elevation at a location along a 3D line.

Along Line Snap can be used in this control:

• Elevation

To use an Along Line Snap:

1. While in an elevation control, right-click in a graphic view, and select Along Line Snap from the context menu. The Along Line Snap command pane displays.
2. Pick a 3D line in the view. A "rubber-band" line appears between your cursor and the line.
3. Using the rubber-band line, pick a point along the line, or type a distance from the beginning point of the line (in station format) in the Distance Along box. The elevation at that location is recorded, and the command pane returns to the previous command, if necessary.
