Linked Views

    Hi, 

    Does TBC have a linked view option. In the example below, I'm elevating contours. Ideally as I move in and out and across the left side view, I'd like the right side view to move in a correlating manner, such that I can check my elevated levels as I cross contours. While I could do this in one view, by removing the additional line work on my left side view, I can process the information quicker.

    Thanks for any comments in advance.

    Regards,

    Julius

    Turns out I can't elevate Contours by Crossing by having 2 views open (with different filters) as the process recognises what is being crossed in the right side view, even though my process was intended for the left side (clean) view.

    Rockpile Solutions provide a free macro called "Lock Views". Not sure if that will still be available (and for free) once they release the V5.90 versions.

    Which version are you using? That elevating in a parallel view, with a different view filter enabled, works for me in 5.70 and 5.90. No matter on which side view I elevate, it only changes the lines I've crossed in that particular view.

    Hi Ronny, 

    Thanks for the response. I'm running 5.90.  I've re run it this morning this a couple of different filter scenarios and different view splits (plan / plan, plan /3d, and it does seem to work (so not sure what I did yesterday). 

    I'll have a look at Rockpiles lock views.

    Thanks.
