Slope Line (SloLin)
Type: Interactive Application / Interactive Batch Application
Interpolates (slopes) point elevations on a line based on two existing line points. There are three modes that are available:
1. | The line to slope is identified and the two existing line elevations are identified. |
2. | The line to slope is identified and that line's end points are used as the existing points |
3. | All lines in layer(s) specified are sloped and the line end points are used as the existing points. |
The following examples show the results of Slope Line. The example on the left shows a line before sloping and the example on the right shows the same line after sloping from the first to the last point on the line.

Slope Line – Slope Layer(s)
Slope Line may be run in a batch mode, in which it will slope the lines in the layers that are specified. The first and last points on the lines will be used as the base points. Multiple layers may be specified using a number line and the current or all open workspaces may be searched.
