Hey Folks, I'd like to bump this thread because I'm beginning a major project that hinges on displaying 2D sections in ArcScene (with good resolution). First off, Keags1, I have to share something with you because I struggled with the same problem for hours before stumbling upon a fix. If your 2D section/image keeps rotating around with you, you need to go into properties, symbols, edit symbol, and there will be a box checked that says "Face Front", uncheck it. By doing so, the image will no longer constantly try to face you when you move, and instead will stay where it is supposed to. With that discovery, the Point - 3D Marker Symbol method is decent. Now I'm on to a new problem. How do I get better resolutions in If my sections are large? I have a cross section that is miles long. When I bring it into ArcMap (with display/rendering settings) maxed out, there are still grain issues because the image is too small? My cross section contains many faults and complex stratigraphy so having my cross section display at sufficient resolution is paramount. My end goal is a 3D geologic block with cross sections bounding all sides, so if it isn't too dreamy, I'd like the 2D section resolution to be SO GOOD that you can't see much of a seam between the rasterized horizon surface and the 2D cross section.
