Two Terrains in cross sections

When I create a complex terrain. It will show both terrains in cross sections. Is there a setting I need to change, or is there another prosses I need to do, to hide the unwanted terrain?

  • I try to turn the levels off but they will not stay off in the cross sections file. Both are in the same terrain file so cannot detach.

  • I'm sure there's a better answer than this, but perhaps you can define a terrain feature definition for "No Plot". Set that up on levels that do not have plotting enabled. We have that sort of thing set up in our Civil3D definitions (we're still learning ORD so it's not in production yet).

    Again, there's probably a better answer. You may look into how to update the level states of the cross section named views, and find something there.
    Another option might be to create the complex terrain in its own drawing so you can isolate it easily. We were told that there should most often only be one terrain per file, for this sort of reason.
