I often have this open and floating on my screen to quickly turn layers off and on to simplify my display.&lt;br /&gt;This helps the snaps be a bit more robust in my experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The way I use this tool is:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;right click in the level display level list and turn all levels off&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;turn on the levels you are trying to snap to&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;perform the operation you want&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;when complete right click and turn all levels back on&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With time this can become quite an efficient tool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Report the crossfall, distance etc. between 2 linear elements</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/726078?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 11 Aug 2022 11:41:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:41b446c2-7015-470c-908f-67b8c7603eb2</guid><dc:creator>Marc Bachand</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Use a station base report.&amp;nbsp; There is a report format for station/elevation.&amp;nbsp; You can do this for two elements, a single report for each.&amp;nbsp; Save the reports to excel and do the math there.&lt;/p&gt;
