Super new to civil. I drew a rain garden that is fed by a long swale and when I try to transform it into a tin there is always a line cutting across the swale. I have added vertices and that might change where it starts from and I have tried editing the tin lines but it all just seems to make more of a mess. Do I need to add a grade/slope line down the center of the swale? That just occurred to me so I haven't tried it yet but looking for suggestions.

I created a drawing from a template that I did not create that is set to inches (though when I draw a line, it tells me the ft and inches). I have set the CRS to one that matches the topo shape file I am bringing in - both are in feet. I moved the drawing to the coordinates where it should be using the coordinates for the reference in the shape file, but when I went back to check its location after moving it, it did not, in fact, land where I told it to. I do not know if this is an issue with the drawing being in inches and the geo data in feet, or what will happen to the drawing once I change the units to feet. If I had known I needed to set the CRS I would have done that before creating the drawing so please don't come at me for that. I have no choice but to backend this, unfortunately. I am a newer user to Civil3D so some of its functionality I have yet to understand/unlock.
