Send to Surface

Architect: AEC > Terrain

Landmark: Landmark

Trees, parking areas, retaining walls, site retaining modifiers, irrigation, and other site objects may need to be placed on the surface of the model. For this purpose, use the Send to Surface command.

This command is effective for stakes, 3D loci, 3D polygons, 3D primitives, extrudes, sweeps, meshes, slabs, light objects, walls, and symbols with a 3D component. If a 2D polyline or 2D polygon is selected, it will first be converted into its 3D equivalent before being sent to the surface.

To send an object to the surface:

Make the layer with the site model object the active layer.

Place the object on the active layer plane and move it to the desired location on the site model.

Select the command.

Alternatively, right-click on the object and select the context command (Vectorworks Landmark required).

If the object is a retaining wall or pad with retaining edge site modifier, the Send to Surface dialog box opens. Select the method of sending the object to the surface of the site model.

Parameter

Description

Elevate the retaining edge

Sets the existing vertices of the retaining edge or retaining wall left/right edge to the surface elevation

Fit the retaining edge

Fits the retaining edge or retaining wall left/right edge to the surface of the site model, modifying existing vertices and/or adding new vertices

Elevate the pad

Sets the elevation of the retaining edge pad or retaining wall pad to the surface elevation; the edges remain unchanged

The correct Z value is given to the object’s insertion point, bottom-most point, or specified portion, placing the object on the surface of the site model.
