Corridor & Contours
« on: March 13, 2008, 05:12:46 PM »
This may seem like a silly question, but how do I turn the corridor off and still keep the contours on?  I know that it's something in the styles, but I'm not sure where.

You can't.

UNLESS you create a DETACHED surface for the corridor NOTE: that surface is no longer dynamically linked to the corridor.

Uh, sure you can Michael.

Just make sure the corridor & surface are on different layers. Freeze the corridor layer (the default is C-ROAD-CORR).

However, if by "off" you mean to deselect every region in the corridor so nothing gets built, THEN you cannot have the contours, as nothing would be calculated to create them.

Sure Jeff, he could even apply a complete NO Display code set to the entire corridor and not see it that way either, and or toggle off the display of the feature lines as well. I guess I gave the short answer, thinking that perhaps the users wanted to toggle off the regions and still see the contours. And yes, they could set up layers to accomplish this as you stated.

Thanks.  I'll give it a try.
