Hello, I'm writing because i'm having troubles using the Contour feature and I need help.

Whenever I use it on a raster I get a layer without Z values. The thing is that I open the attribute table and I can see an attribute called "Contour" where I have the elevation for each polyline but it doesn't recognise it as Z elevation.

How could I get a result with Z values? If it wasn't possible, how could I copy these values from the Contour attribute to the elevation of each polyline?

Thanks in advance.

ps: excuse me if I made some writing mistakes, my English isn't really good.

I solved it thanks to some reddit users, the problem was that when I was using the Contour feature I needed to push the environments button and enable the Z values of the output layer. To turn the contour attribute table values into elevation I used the feature "Feature to 3D by Attribute".

I hope it can help anybody.
