Bulk elevation change to vector data

I am looking for method to either apply or edit elevations of vector vertices. I'm doing a bit of 3D visualizing of a landfill configuration. I would like to be able to set all of the vertices elevations to the same value on a line. Also, it would be nice to have method to move vector objects in the vertical dimension much like can be done in XY with the "Shift (Offset) Line Feature."

Suggestions?

    You can select a 3D line feature with the Feature Info tool and press Vertices, then you can easily edit the elevation values.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    I was aware of how to edit vertices as you describe. However, that allows you to edit each individual which can be time-consuming if you have a line with many vertices all of which you want to have the same elevation. I would like to be apply to apply a single elevation value to all of the vertices simultaneously.

    You should be able to select all of the vertices in the line on the vertex dialog at once (just use Shift+Click to highlight a range) and then set them all to the same value.
