topic Problem entering negative Z values in Edit Sketch Properties in 3D Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/problem-entering-negative-z-values-in-edit-sketch/m-p/355208#M2164 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have a 3D Polyline Feature Class. I want to add a Z value to each vertex along the line. Since these polylines are pipelines, they are underground, I need to enter in negative Z values at each vertex which represent depth. But, when I enter in negative Z values I get a message that the Coordinates are Out of Bounds. I have the vertical datum set (NAVD88). However, when I enter in positive Z values it works good. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I increased the Z Domain from the default -10000 to -20. I still get the same Coordinates Out of Bounds Error when entering a negative Z value. According the Z Domain, it says I can enter any value between -20 and the Max of 2564433333 for example. The negative Z values I am entering for each vertex under Edit Sketch Properties range from -9 to -3. These should be inside the bounds. Not sure why this message keeps popping up. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any ideas?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Nov 2013 16:55:36 GMT TimHayes 2013-11-05T16:55:36Z Problem entering negative Z values in Edit Sketch Properties https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/problem-entering-negative-z-values-in-edit-sketch/m-p/355208#M2164 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have a 3D Polyline Feature Class.

My MXD was somehow corrupted. I opened a blank MXD and added in my pipesZ feature class, changed the Z values to negative numbers under Edit Sketch Properties. It works.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 06 Nov 2013 16:11:27 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/problem-entering-negative-z-values-in-edit-sketch/m-p/355209#M2165 TimHayes 2013-11-06T16:11:27Z
