Add 2D Lines to a 3D Slide [Beta]

Learn how to add 2D lines to a 3D Slide to display infrastructure and geological line data.

Overview

2D Lines display infrastructure and geological line data in your 3D Slide. Lines drape onto the topography and can be configured by colour, line style, and opacity.

Common examples include roads and surface infrastructure, fault lines, and geological contacts.
