AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Not All Alignment Tangents Being Curved?
Jul 15, 2013I'm having trouble designing an alignment from an pre existing road. I drew the polyline and I need it to get curved between tangents (since there isn't a label that informs the angles between these tangents). But when I do it, not all the tangents get curved, just a part of it. The weird thing is that the whole polyline gets converted to an alignment and labeled correctly, but only the tangents near the initial stations get curved.
Other issue is that even if I draw another alignment in the same X, Y, i can't project it to my existing profile view. I can't offset my EG so i can weed it and design my alignment for my pressure pipe.
I'm more experienced working with pound and slopes in architecture design and this part of C3D seems more complicated

Mar 20, 2013I always draw a polyline to define my alignments. When selecting the polyline for the alignment, in the Create Alignment from Objects box, at the bottom, the default is to "Add curves between tangents". Where do I turn that off so default in NO.

Sep 4, 2012Just started a drawing in C3D 2013 using an existing template. If I draw an arc using the "Angle" rather than length or radius, entering the angle as 11.1601, then label the arc, the delta angle is converted to hms or 11.0936 . The template and labeling style are ones we've used for several releases. I've compared the feature settings, units and the curve labeling command and can not find where this is being changed.

But when it rotates in the view it rotates about the left justification point instead of middle as inserted into drawing. So I inserted lot numbert text into drawing and changed text to non-annotative, but now i can not change the text rotation angle unless i use rotate command on each individual piece of text (was trying to pick all text and change in properties box). Using feature lines to assist in grading design so not sure if this is an autocad problem or a civil 3d 2012 problem. I can rotate dtext made or inserted in drawing.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Calculate Tangents For Pline Fit Curve?
Jan 1, 2012the resulting arc-fit pline has each pline segment converted into two arcs, the common radii of which are perpendicular to the original segment (unless direction of curverature changes)
the resulting arcs can be calculated given the angle of the tangents for each segment.
the factors for determining the tangents at vertex N are:
deflection angle at N
deflection angle at N+1 (90° or non-extant = not a factor, 0° or 180° = segment is the tangent)
deflection angle at N-1 (90° or non-extant = not a factor, 0° or 180° = segment is the tangent)
ratio of lengths of segments (N , N+1) and (N , N-1)
I can find the tangents when N±1 = 90° and when the segment lengths are equal but i can't figure out how to compute the tangent if these 3 factors are varied.
I don't want to use (command"._PEDIT" pl "_FIT""") because i need to collect the arc data anyway and at a high frame rate. The data will be used to further compute a spline frame that best fits a quadratic spline to the arcs. That part i know how to do!
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Custom Rounding And Format Of Object Annotation For Angle
Sep 7, 2013How do you set an object's annotation, say a line, to display a line's angle or bearing precision to the nearest 20th second.
Kinda like this for decimals:
0.000
0.00
0.0
But for degrees minutes seconds.
Also, I will require the seconds to hide if the nearest 20th second was a 00. I also need a leading zero for minutes if the minutes was under 10 minutes.
