do you want the bottom of the wall to attach to the topo? in short you can't! you can try and create a void family that will sort off follow your topo (to an extent) and cut the botton of the wall off... do you have an image of what you want?

sorry mate, this feature was requested so many times and sad to say that it doesn't look like 9 got it as well Sad for roads you might want to split topo and apply different material, you can also look at a tutorial I wrote "complex slabs..." that's the best you can do now HTH

Hey, I think I found a cheap way to do something like this. Instead of modelling the toposurface, you create a floor and modify it using slab edges to match the topography. Then you are able to attach the wall to this floor, and are able to draw lines on the bottom of the wall which follow the slope. You can then offset any distance from these lines, which makes the wall always a certain distance above the slope. Hope this helps
