3D Points - Points by Slope Ratio

Function

This command allows you to locate points. First pick the starting point. Next pick a point for the direction. The Ratio to enter is positive for up, negative for down. Enter in the starting elevation and the remaining point elevations are calculated by distance and slope. Either the distance or the number of points to locate is set.
