Better snaps in cross sections
Not everything displayed in a cross section view can be snapped to. Here is a sneaky way to change that:
Send the entire view to a cad detail. You might want to do this before you autodetail the elevation, and with certain layers off, like fixtures, furnishings, ect.
Next, select all the lines in the cad detail and send them to a new locked layer, which I will call 'cross section snaps.' While in the dbx, set all line weights to 0, and select the blank line style.
Now, copy and paste-hold-position into your elevation. Now you can snap to every building line you see.Rod Kervin

If a picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is worth a thousand pictures, then uploading the chief file is worth a thousand videos.
