I have a project where Create Cut Fill Volumes is not working correctly. It seems to be using a different existing ground terrain than what is set as active. The corridor correctly ties down to this terrain. The first image shows the left side of a particular template drop, which is a correct representation. The second image is of the same left side, but with the cut and fill shapes displayed. For some reason it appears to be using a different terrain. The cut volume doesn't extend to the existing ground over the entire section, and there is a phony fill volume that doesn't really exist. This is happening on most, if not all, of the dynamic cross-sections. As a test, I loaded any and all project-related terrains into this view. None of them represent the surface that Create Cut Fill Volumes is using.
What is happening here? Needless to say, at this point I have very little confidence in my earthwork volumes.
Hi Josh,
It doesnt use the active terrain specifically, but any referenced terrain that has an "Existing" volume option (whether displayed or not). Do you have any other terrains (or meshes) in the file which are Existing? Any objects using Substrata or Unsuitable?

Any chance you could upload some of this data so we can have a look?
Can you please refresh my memory on how/where to upload files? I tried attaching a 10,709KB zip file to this reply, but it failed to send.
maybe upload seperate files?
