I'll be interested to see if anyone has managed to create a ground line as
you describe.  I assume it is not possible to make it a boundary for the
background colour.

I have just tried taking a 3d gps trail with 2m resolution and then
including it as a survey line and this can be included to give context in
Loch, Aven and pdf outputs.  Not sure how well it would work with extended
elevations though - I have only tried it with projected elevations.
It adds interesting context to plans and elevations, but best with a white
background in elevations.

It is quick to produce, but seems a little clunky. If anyone has a better
way to include gps trails in therion data I would like to learn of it.

Some snippets below to show what I mean.
