Hi,
A little stumped on how to get the result I'm after.
Here I have an elevation long section (bottom red line) and an over all plan view of the new rail route (top red line). White lines mark 100m incraments, total length is 1800m. I need to merge the two to produce something similar to the top red line but when viewed in isometric view you'll be able to see the rise and fall in the route shown in the long section.
All I have access to is MS SS3, is there a way to wrap one line along the path of another but keep Z levels?

If I am to understand your problem, you want to add the z-values of the bottom line to the complex line at the top, is that correct? Here are some options which may help you achieve this: communities.bentley.com/.../16120.how-to-move-elements-to-different-z-elevation. I think the top option will be the most helpful. Let me know if none of these work for you.
Cheers,

A parametric approach using GenerativeComponents would work as well. Array points at even intervals along both lines, then creating a new set of points that take the X & Y from the plan and Z from the section. The 3D curve could then be drawn as a fitted BSplineCurve.
are either of the red lines 3d?

Unknown said:Right now they're both 2D. The long section line contains the positional Z information
I'm not sure I understand that. How can a 2D line contain Z information?
Can you post your DGN file?
