I need to create cross sections and there is not a command to do it. Here is what I see:
No, but you do need an alignment and a terrain element, which can be from a reference file. The alignment has to be an Open Roads alignment which can be created from an ALG. if need be.
If you only have a DTM, you can create a terrain element from it. The terrain element needs a feature definition, or an element template assigned to it. The level of the surface comes from the general level settings of the element template. If you are using a feature definition for the terrain element, it does point to an element template as well.
Profiles are still plotted the InRoads way, using InRoads alignments and DTM's.
