I don't think that will do it. Because, I don't want to slice anything. I just want to show the boundaries on the 3D surface. I want to project the polygon that marks the edges of a region, onto the 3D topography. It seems that Slice Along Polyline uses a laser to cut a section of the surface, according to the instructions. Instead I want to see each spot where the laser hits on the surface.

Just select the data set and the poly line in the window popping up and then proceed in the properties section as usual. Cheers Venke > Adam Dershowitz <adershow...@exponent.com> hat am 25.
