https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/3d-line-trace-tool/m-p/1139768#M50853 <P>Looks like the Trace tool to draw for a line along one or more features only works in 2D.</P><P>This should be possible also in 3D. In my case i have a trench with 3D information (pic 1) and need to draw the cables (pic 2) in 3D. The case is that i want to trace these 3D trench lines to create the Cables with same Z but a offset to right or left. The use surface or constant Z does not seem to be an easy way to do this. Anyone have a smart solution, or is this something that should be implemented as a 3D trace tool ?</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Trench.png" style="width: 521px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/32927i0B440DEE354D143E/image-dimensions/521x335?v=v2" width="521" height="335" role="button" title="Trench.png" alt="Trench.png" /></span><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CablesInParallel.png" style="width: 516px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/32926iCB9BCE4E5529FFAC/image-dimensions/516x320?v=v2" width="516" height="320" role="button" title="CablesInParallel.png" alt="CablesInParallel.png" /></span></P> Wed, 02 Feb 2022 12:28:44 GMT EivindAasland 2022-02-02T12:28:44Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/3d-line-trace-tool/m-p/1139768#M50853 <P>Looks like the Trace tool to draw for a line along one or more features only works in 2D.</P><P>This should be possible also in 3D.
