Displaying topo line with building pad?

January 18, 2018, 10:49 AM

Hello

I have created the site topography. I have then created a building pad within it. Is it possible to display the original ground line of the topography as if the building pad was not there? This would allow me to show existing site levels to proposed site levels.

Thanks,

I believe if you set the phase filter to show new, previous and demo you will see the dashed line of the existing topo.

We always do grading plans set to Show All so that the demolished toposurface and the new graded region all show together.
