jpln-For Case 1: I utilized Constraint Type of Horizontal Minimum & Vector-Offset added 2 Null Points Parent 1 & Parent 2 as shown in the screen shot below and it worked. It followed along the 1:2 slope down. Case 2 was similar.

For CASE 1 I would use a null point (P2) vertically placed so that it is always above design, with vertical constraint project to design (down) and a horizontal offset 2 feet from edge of sidewalk (P1). Then you can set a display rule to measure vertical distance betwee edge of sidewalk and this point to check if <-10 inches. If no design found or cut, then the vertical distance should remain positive.

For CASE 2, the same principle but with point (P2) placed hoizontally 0 at 2 feet from edge of sidewalk and project left to design, vertically -60inches from point (P1) that is 2 feet from edge of sidewalk (worst case for slope). Display rule horizontal between P1 and P2 > 0 and slope P1 to P2 > 1:2
