Add Point Projection Interval Option to "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool

Currently when using the "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool, ORD seems to only project a point at every vertex of a 3D line string. This is fine when using the Geometry Tools to create 3D line strings since it creates a vertex point in 3D based on the Stroking Values. BUT, if we have a regular smart line drawn in 3D, and we want to use the "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool on that 3D smart line to create a 3D line, where for example, a 2:1 slope intersect the Existing Ground Terrain, it currently only projects a point at the start of the 3D smart line, and a point at the end of the 3D smart line then connects the 2 points. There needs to be an option to project a point at a chosen/desired interval along the 3D smart line since there are no vertices along it so that it can draw the projected line more accurately where it intersects the Terrain. I suppose similar to how a template drop "Interval" works for corridors.
