Hello,           I am new to  TBC-HCE. When reading 'Installation and Basic Operations' I am prompted to import a 'Trimble building .layer' file.

When using TIM to update devices, the link to view the Release Notes does not work for the heavy civil equipment.  I searched for it on the community site, but no luck.  Can someone post a link to the release notes please.

Is it possible to assign a Layer Group when importing CAD files?   I see that it's possible to assign a Layer name prefix when importing a file but it would be handy to send each imported CAD file (each with 50,000 layers of meaningless, 2D junk data) directly into their own groups when importing so they can be easily ticked on or off to see… (Show more)

Is there any way to adjust the sampling distance per individual surface other than the global settings for the project? Quite often I find the need to have my Finish Design surface densified more than an existing ground surface. Controling project size is one of my main objectives.

I created a surface in Civil 3D. I exported it as an XML file. I imported this XML file in TBC. I found some members missing in the TBC surface. I created 3D Line strings where necessary and placed them in a layer. When I try to Add these members to the surface, it is not getting added....returns "0 members added"  message.   What is wrong?
