7.3 3D Line

3D lines can be used for various purposes in your site plan. You can use them to highlight areas, define property lines, create paths for animations, and other use cases.

To Draw a Line:

• Click on Annotate > Line in the left command dock or the (+) button besides 3D Line in the Scenario Tree.
• Click anywhere on the map to start a sketch and create the 3D line outline. A new 3D line with default settings will appear in the viewer along with relevant options in the right-hand-side menu.
  
  
   

To Edit a 3D Line:

• Click the pen tool (1) at the top to rename the 3D line. It’s good practice to identify the lines you are going to use, specially when creating vehicle paths and other animations.
• Use the style menu (2) to choose between solid or dashed lines, define the line width and color (3).
• Check the "Pixel-Based Width" box (4) to ensure you have consistent line width on the screen when zooming in or out.
• Use the Timeline menu (5) to define the first and last milestone in which the line will be visible, or hide the 3D line from all milestones.
• 3D lines will be detached from the terrain by default, but you can use the "Project on Terrain" toggle (6) to align it with the terrain.
• Similar to zones, all your 3D lines in a scenario will take up only a single slot from the allowed projection limit.
• Use the “Move” (7), “Rotate” (8), Reordering options (9) and “Edit Sketch” (10) buttons to adjust the location, projection order and shape of the 3D line on your site plan.
• Click "Done" (11) to confirm the 3D line setup.

To Delete a Line:

• Double-click or right-click on 3D line and select "Edit" to open the side menu.
• Click on the trash bin icon (12) to delete the 3D line or simply select it from the 3D view and press the Delete button on your keyboard.
