Guys, I need some help on this. As you can see on the picture 1, my elevation doesn't show the line that represents the intersection of my building and the ground. I know I can get that by making building pads but I place the pads exactly under the ground floor slab and they don't show up properly in section. They cut through my external walls and besides that they create a weird thing around my building thats shows up in 3D and elevations (check pic2).
I can also just sketch those lines with detail lines but I'm trying to avoid sketching lines as much as possible. What would you guys do?

I create my pads at the exterior line of my foundation wall and I din't have any material assigned to them.  My ground slab has the aggregate base in it.  Doing this should give you the line you want as long as this is all below grade.  If it is above grade, then the pad needs to be to the inside of the foundation wall.

Sounds like I have to create many pads because my site is quite steep and I have many levels for my foundation walls. Besides that I need another pad under my slab as well coz the toposurface shows up in my living room... :-)

By the way, what do you mean by "My ground slab has the aggregate in it"?

 

I appreciate the help, WWHub.
