How do you edit the triangles when contouring?. What am I missing?

From what I can tell, you can't edit the triangulation lines. I have
found that it is best to set up all of your breaklines (such as roads)
with 3D polylines and inclusion/exclusion areas with 2D polylines before
hand. I've found that this helps the program calculate the contours much
better the first time around.

If someone does know how to do this, I would love to know as well.

I do the same as Doug.

And if I need a tin line to go somewhere it isn't, I make a 3D breakline
(Draw/3D Polyline) where I want it to go.
