    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi all,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have some question about visibility analyst in 3D Analyst in ArcGIS. I want to create silhouette of a 3d city model from observation point. For that, I had used Skyline, Skyline Barrier and Skyline Graph in Visibility Analyst. And the Skyline tool offer choise us for create: "Segment Skyline" or "Create Silhouette" under the Skyline Options &lt;STRONG&gt;(p&lt;SPAN style="color: #3d3d3d;"&gt;icture 1&lt;/SPAN&gt;). &lt;/STRONG&gt;When I used "Segment Skyline", it contains green line feature in &lt;STRONG&gt;picture 2. &lt;/STRONG&gt;I thing&lt;STRONG&gt;,&lt;/STRONG&gt; it doesn't look like silhouette of a city. Instead of "Segment Skyline", when I used "Create Silhouette", it contains grey mulhipatch feature in &lt;STRONG&gt;picture 3 and 4&lt;/STRONG&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How can I create a silhouette like below picture?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG __jive_id="184785" alt="silhouette.png" class="image-1 jive-image" height="104" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/184785_silhouette.png" style="height: 104px; width: 341.25px;" width="341" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How to create silhouette of a 3d city model using ArcGIS? Can the Skyline Analyst solve my problem?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-family: arial, helvetica, 'helvetica neue', verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Can you kindly give any advices?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
