benboggs Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I am having to draw dumb contours to eliminate all the jaggedness of the model generated contours. Also - the model wants to close contours when I do not want it to (trying to create deliberate low points and swales - but model wants to draw 105' contour through pad modifier stakes with elevations of 103, and 104). My issue is when I draw polylines over top of the contours - segments disappear, the first part of the polyline goes away, or the last segment. Does connecting them to contours with elevations cause this? Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Not sure what you are describing. Can you post an image of the problem if possible? Or a file with just a few of the objects? -B Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted February 19, 2016 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted February 19, 2016 Do you have unclosed polylines that have a solid fill? If that is the case, it will create a white fill overtop the space between the two endpoints of the polyline. Quote Link to comment
benboggs Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 No - the polylines do not have a solid fill. I am more or less tracing the site model generated finished contours to create smoother finished contours for bid documents. When I go to trace the model contour (start at one end) and draw a polyline (with multiple arcs, straight segment) and when I am done drawing the polyline - sometimes segments of the poly line will disappear. Attached is an example. Quote Link to comment
