Creating Pond Perimeters

3 Do one of the following to change the elevation:

Type Elevation, and then type the new elevation for the pond perimeter.

Type Difference, and then type the elevational difference to apply to the

perimeter. For example, if you type 10, then ten feet are added to the

elevation of the perimeter.

Type eXit to end the command without changing the pond elevation.

The ponds new elevation is displayed at the command line.

Adding Vertices to a Pond Perimeter

The more vertices you assign to a pond perimeter, the more slope control lines

are created for the pond when you shape the pond. You can use the slope

control lines as breakline data when you define the pond as a surface.

Use the Pond Perimeter

Add Vertices command to add vertices to the pond

perimeter at a specified interval. You can use this command to add vertices to

straight-line pond perimeters or to curved pond perimeters. You can add

vertices to 2D or 3D polylines.

NOTE

This command removes all extended entity data for an existing pond. This

means that the pond loses its definition and any shaping data applied to it.

You must re-create the pond slope data after using this command.

To add vertices to a pond perimeter

1 From the Grading menu, choose Pond Perimeter ä Add Vertices to display the

Confirmation dialog box.

2 Click Yes to erase all extended entity data, or No to end the command.

When you click Yes, the following prompt is displayed:

Select (Entity/POints):

3 Do one of the following to select the perimeter:

Type POints to select the perimeter by selecting points.

Type Entity to select the perimeter by clicking on the entity.

For more information, see Adding Vertices By Entity Option in this chapter.

Adding Vertices By POints Option

To add vertices using the Points option

1 Select the start and end points of the polyline segment.

The following prompt is displayed:

Distance to set additional tangent vertices <59.5445 m>:
