AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Clip Grid Lines But Still Show Information?
Feb 29, 2012
I need to clip the grid lines at a certain station, but still show the information beyond. The Engineers here got quite comfortable doing that with Land Desktop, and we haven't found a solution to do this with Civil.
I know about clipping the grid (under Profile View Properties), but the ditch (for example) clips to that same station. I need to show the information to the start/end of the survery without grid lines.
Right now, our solution is to draw line over top of the grid lines, and make those lines print white. Therefore, covering up the grid lines underneath.
Using Civil 2011 and running Windows 7.

Any way to create NE grid lines or ticks and labels around the perimeter of a viewport. I found a VBA program online, but I'm using 2011 and it uses .net. Is there a way to convert VBA to .net?

Im having an issue where the horizontal grid lines in my profile are projecting out past my last specified station (see attached) My profile begins at sta: 1+00 and ends at 1+12. My user specified station range is sta: 0+80 to 1+30. I didn't have this issue in release 11 (im currently using release 12) with this profile view style and i did hundreds of profiles with this very same style.

The above sums it all up. Note the properties are NOT GREY they are what they are supposed to be.
The file was created in version 2012 by another designer now it is being completed in 2013 by myself.
I can do a quick fix by creating a wblock of the problem lines and text etc to enable a print out without the GREYING
problem but once the drawing is closed and opened once again the drawing has GREYED whatever is in model space again. (note that xrefed lines etc are fine)
Ps I have attached the problem file with all the xrefs and jaz unattached/taken off etc

I have created a road for a pit mine (which is unlike roads I have designed in the past). The road switched back towards itself and I need to daylight the cut slopes to show the limits of the mine/road cut. However, my cut/fill lines are not showing up in my cross-sections, but the plan view is showing the limits of excavation.
I assume this is because my limits are intersecting, from each of the roads, the upper and the lower. How can I get around this, or why are my cross-section lines not showing?

i have a long alignment going through a lot of creeks. right now the creeks are in xref just polylines but it intersect with alignments at areas.
is there a quick way to show all these lines on profile for design and drafting purposes? ideally want to just show a line at each intersection would be fine.
tried using pipes takes too long to set up. this is one important feature to have in the software.
i can program it again but i have not enough time to finish this project by mid october if i keep programming things.

recommend a good way to indicate the location of cross section sample lines in a profile view (of same alignment) as vertical lines? the sample lines have been created at user defined locations from polylines, and do not follow a particular station order. my first thought was to use transparent command to draw line in profile view using station from plan view, but i have in excess of 100 cross sections, and that may be time consuming.

Understanding that composite volumes are typically more accurate, I have a reason to evaluate the volume between two surfaces via a grid volume. Easily created a grid volume surface using a 50' grid (50' is large for this site, but wanted to get a feel for calculation time).
Question: Can you change the grid size without creating a new grid surface? Ultimately I woud like to explore the difference in volumes based on grid sizing without creating a long list of surfaces. One would expect that you could chage the grid spacing in surface properties, but the values are non-editable.

My Corel software sometimes exhibits a kind of glitch where a text element won't show up just after I've created it and most of my fonts disappear. If I go to wire frame view I can see that the text is there, it's as though the text is just white, but I can't change the color to anything else. I can change the font, but I have to do it blindly because most of my font list disappears.

Is there any way to turn on the information ,which can be obtained from schedules, on properties palette? For example, the length for the structural columns can be seen on the schedule created. However, it is not seen on the properties palette. How can I show that information on properties palette under dimensions?

I remember being able to select 'Print Grid' back when I used AutoCAD 2000, but never needed to print the grid lines until about a year ago. AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT cannot do this. It seems only AutoCAD Civil 3D users have this option. Basically I need to print the drawing with a grid on paper and/or a mobile device so a field technician can draw conditions to scale easily and accurately. I realize this must not be in high demand, but there are a number of users who have asked about this. They are told that it is only a 'drawing aid' and they should array their construction lines to print their own grid. This is not a good solution for repetition of printing scaled field drawings, and certainly not 'state of the art' technology. Is this feature removed so we will have to search out the higher priced product? It seems like 'Print Grid' could be easily returned to all AutoCAD. Probably just a system variable that was removed when we weren't looking.

I am having a problem with my grid lines F7 coming back on, there is no consistency or reason that I can see that might be turning them back on, I can be zooming in and out, stretching something, dimensioning something?

I am a AutoCad drafter for telecommunications and I have utility pole points (long/lats)
I can insert the poles via long/lat and all is great, my issue is I would like more information in those points.
For example, pole number, class, HOA, Make Ready. Currently I create a survey data store and import ASCII Points using PNE(comma delimited)
So with my Excel file (this is where I get my pole information from) I get a point/northing/easting to enter into the formatting section.
I would like to add more information to these individual points, like ploe number, class, HOA...
If I view the point table I see that there are a lot of other columns, can I use them or customize them? is there a quick tutorial on this issue?

I have this code to draw grid lines within a rectangle:
;Variable settings(defun var_set () (setq *var_lst* '("cmdecho" "osmode" "expert" "plinewid" "dynmode") *var_usr* (mapcar 'getvar *var_lst*)) (mapcar 'setvar *var_lst* '(0 0 2 0 0)) (vl-load-com))(defun var_reset ()(mapcar 'setvar *var_lst* *var_usr*)) (defun *error* (msg) (if (not (member msg '("console break" "Function cancelled" "quit / exit abort" "" nil)) ) (princ (strcat "
Error: " msg)) ) (and ;(vl-bt) (var_reset) ) (princ) ) (defun string-list (data) ;by lee-mac @theswamp (if (vl-string-search "@" [code].........
The above gets me the grid lines; but I have a block inserted at both ends of the grid line; how do I get the selection of those entities (selection set "frame") after each array?
or I would need to map a point list and draw each grid individually how do I go about that?
Attached is the sample of the output I'd like to achieve using LISP.

I am having a problem with grid lines showing up in my print out from autocad, but only in the viewport that has 3D objects in it and displayed in conceptual mode or realistic mode. Don't know what is causing them or how to get rid of them. They do not show up on my screen or in the print preview. They only show up in the final prints and even when printing to a pdf file format. I have printed the same drawing out from other computers that have Autocad 2009 and do not get that problem. My computer has Autocad 2010. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Autocad but that doesn't work.

I would like to do some stylized typography with horizontal lines inside the letterforms' shapes...this is a common effect.
I can't find one method that will work for me, other than divide, and that leaves me with a lot of hair-pulling tedious selecting all the unwanted bits and deleting them!
clipping paths won't be useful, because I can't get it to clip the stuff inside!
I know this has got to be an easy thing to do, but I'm in the weeds over the procedure..

Being able to see the keywords assigned to each photo in grid view would be incredibly useful to me for managing my photos and videos as I add new keywords. Just seeing the "this photo has keywords" tag does not work. I need to see the actual keywords, without having to click on each individual photo to see them.

I recently subscribed to the Creative Cloud and installed both Photoshop and Lightroom.
After working with the new LR5 for the first few days I noticed that when I am within the Lens Correction and I click 'Manual' in order to manually correct perspective you always get a grid overlay that shows up when you hover over the different Transform options (Distortion, vertical, horizontal, etc...) and it no longer shows the overlay.
In order for me to correct the perspective I have to manually click Option+Comand+O in order to get the grid, which is a little bit annoying since it was automatic before.

I created a corridor utilizing a profile, assembly and alignment. Worked well. I then created a surface from that corridor. The surface type should be displaying contours, but I do not see any. What am I doing wrong? The corridor display shows it covering the area that it should cover.
I did this once before and I had trouble with it that time as well. I remember the fix had something to do with adding code data from the corridor to the surface. I used a "+" button, but now have no idea where I did this at.

My Engineer has a Hec-ras file that he has been working on and I need to change some of the sections. I don't want to re-export all of my sections to a .goe file and lose the work he has already carried out.
Is there any way of exporting the necessary sample line information into a CSV file, as I believe this will be the best way to make the changes to the hec-ras data without losing the work which has already been carried out.
