Hi,
Does anyone know why my terrain model automatically displays as triangulated?
I have no set feature definition during import and even if I do it doesn't appear to make a difference.
I am importing from a .fil and have been following Module 1 - Overview and Terrain video on the learn server.
Other info, I downloaded update 2 yesterday and prior to that I didn't have this problem. Also I've found that when placing geometry with no feature definition it appears on screen white. Previously when I set a feature definition like Geom_Baseline it would turn red or orange, it doesn't do that any more. It seems like my feature definition system isn't working properly.

If you look at your screenshot, in the Calculated Features section, you have Triangles set to 'On'.
I don't recall turning that on but thanks for your reply Mark.
Following on from that, I now see the boundary but its solid white rather than the dashed green I'm expecting. Why is that?
You would need to check the feature symbology settings. The feature definition points to the feature symbology which points to an Element Template to define the level, colour etc. of the feature.
You might also want to set your maximum triangle length - this will automatically trim your triangulation for you.
Try it at about 20m - you can always adjust it in the properties
Hi Mark,
I've recorded the following, hopefully it'll help:

Basically I'd like to know why my OR is behaving differently to the tutorial I'm watching. My example being triangles are turned on automatically when I don't want them to be. I want to see the green dashing line associated with Existing Boundary when I set the feature definition.
I've also noted that when I set different feature definitions nothing seems to change. Previously if I selected Existing Contours I would see the contours, now nothing changes on screen.
