Apply Section Intersections

(This functionality is available with the Profiles and Design module)

Inserts points at the intersection of the cross sections and the lines created as defined by the rules set in the Define End Areas dialog box at every section marker where both cross section surfaces exist. If the intersection points extend outside the section then a line segment will be created to join the end point of the surface to the intersection point.

The Volumes/Apply Section Intersections command is selected from the Profiles task in the cross section view and is only be enabled if the user has successfully defined a two section end areas.

This command displays the Apply Section Intersections dialog box.
