The surface may be a terrain model, a mesh, or mesh solid.<br /><br /><a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-52/3731.Clip1.jpg"><img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-52/3731.Clip1.jpg" alt=" " /></a><br /><br /><br /></li> <li>The <strong>Quick Profile from Surface </strong>tool is a companion tool that provides the same result, but simplifies the input by assuming that the entire element is draped and that the offsets are zero.<br /><br /><a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-52/4810.Clip2.jpg"><img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-52/4810.Clip2.jpg" alt=" " /></a></li> </ul> <p></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h1><b><img style="border-width:0px;" alt=" " src="/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-components-sitefiles/TSG-Logo.png" height="60" width="189" /></b></h1><div style="clear:both;"></div>
