    Hi all,

    I have a surface created from imported AutoCAD lines. I push/pulled all the lines up to the proper elevation. Now I am asked to make this surface exaggerated so that the the contours look greater than what they actually are.

    Right now the contour interval is 1', which on a large scale, looks relatively flat. Is there a ruby/method, etc. that will allow me to pick the entire surface and push-pull to achieve, say 5' intervals.

    This will achieve a much hillier plan, but the contour elevations will be able to be seen by the client.

    I hope I'm explaining this correctly.

    Thanks,

    Rick

      Hi Rick,

      How about scaling by 5 along the Z axis?


      Update: group it first so if eventually you need it to reset, just right click and reset scale
