AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Contour Lines Not Displaying Correctly
Oct 16, 2012
What is the easiest way to correct contour lines when they don't display correct? Adding points, deleting points, switching edges...
See everything circled in orange on attached pdf.

I have a utilities file with existing water and FM as shown in picture 1. But when I reference it into my sheet, the text becomes very tiny. Is there a setting for paper space I should change? The dash is correct, just the letters get small, so changing the ltscale in the original drawing blows up the dash also so that won't work.

I am running a corridor in Civil 3D 2012 that has two baselines. Issues with multiple baselines in section views, but understand this problem was eliminated in 2012? In any case, this does not seem to by my issue. Attached you will find a section view through the two baselines (one is for a general overlay, the second for widening). The section view seems to display correctly at station 3+75, but 25' feet further down the road it does not display the corridor assemblies correctly (as can be seen by the lack of a ditch and shoulder overlay in the second image).
I have checked the code styles to make sure all links are included, as well as the comparing section view properties. All settings and styles appear to be the same, and the corridor seems to be built correctly. If I sample the Finished Grade corridor surface, it displays in section view as if the ditch were there (see third image).

We are currently using 2012 Civil 3D, and we have a issue with a drawing that not all the Pipes from the pipe network are displaying in the Profile, and even the pipe properties display box the lengths show up way too long and the stationing does not display correctly in this pipe properties box either.
The Big Twist is that we have 2 machines in the offices that will display the drawing correctly, in profile view and pipe properties display box has correct lengths and stationing. So we know it is not styles, etc.
Direct support has suggested we un-install all Autodesk products and reinstall them all again, we tried the repair, however this did not work. Any other way before we have to go through all this work, as we are looking a huge amount of downtime, and we do not think this is the issue. Perhaps a Civil 3D variable or Autocad variable is different?

I have a client that just started using C3D 2010. When I sent him a topographic survey with contour lines (I am also using C3D 2010) he called me and asked if there was a way to select an individual contour line and have it display the elevation in the 'properties' dialog box. I have not been able to find an answer for him.

Is there a way to quckly join contour lines that have been broken where the contour elevation is?
example, if this were a contour line ---------501---------
I'd want to delete the contour elevation and join the line to make a continuous contour line.....

We recently received a LiDAR data in the form of an .asc file. Brought it fine into Civil 3d.
However, the level data is in mm so levels are showing as 98450 instead of 98.45. The level ranges from 98450 to 166260.
When I create a surface and set the style to show contours, it only displays contour lines below 100,000. Is this a limit in Civil 3D or am I missing some setting somewhere? I'm using the UKIE template btw.

I’m having some issues with my CAD. Every now and then, my contour lines disappear and I can’t get them to reappear. My surface border and triangles will appear but not the contours. Sometimes if I change surface styles they will appear but other times they are gone forever.
Troubleshooting: Regen AllAuditPurgeLayers on/offLayers frozen/thawedPromoting (if the surface is a data short cut)Changing the surface styleChanging the contour interval
None of this has worked…

How to label the contour lines this way? I wanted to label the contours as shown in screenshot 1, but couldn’t know how to do that.
Which option should I choose to label the contours this way?

I am having problems viewing my contour lines after I create a surface. I create the surface using points. The contour lines will show up when I create the surface. After I close the program or the drawing, I am not able to see the contour lines again. The contour lines are on in the surface style. How can I see the contour lines without creating the surface again?

I just upgraded to Civil3D 2014 and Windows 8. When I create a TIN surface using a DEM file no contour lines are displayed. Points are processed and triangles are created and can be displayed but no contour lines. Contour line layers are set to display in the style file.

I have drawing giving to us for a senior design project. I'm trying to create a surface to so that I can analyze cut/fill. Not sure if what i'm doing is right or wrong, I've never used civil 3d. But i'm getting break-line errors whenever i'm trying to create the surface from the contour lines.
Heres a link i took of what i'm doing on youtube [URL]........

When I plot my dwg my contour lines disappear. Looks good in model and layout but when I plot (usually to pdf) the contour lines do not show. Labels for contours are there. I attached samples.

I have this contour lines from dwg file (see attached) and I am trying to make a surface out of it. Initially i thought it is already a surface for C3D but i cant seem to follow tutorials. While browsing for solutions from the Internet, it seems it is not even a contour file that can be added in C3D. what is this file and how i can convert it into a surface in C3D?

I am trying to add contour lines to a surface at very specific elevations (rain event elevations). I can add all the intervals I want but can't seem to figure out how to add a contour at a certain elevation.

As far as I know there is no way to add or remove vertices on contour label lines. Is this correct?
If so it's another one for my wish list.

I have R/W and Utility lines that I am trying to display in my cross-sections. I add them as Profile Grade Points to the Sample Lines. This works well in 4 out of 5 of my corridor drawings, however, 1 of the files does not display these lines in the cross-sections. I already checked turned-off layers and that's not it. When I check the individual Section View Properties, these alignments (& corresponding profiles) show up in the list, just not on the actual cross-section.

I was given a file from a competetor (this is evil)
The file has coordinates in feet (x, y) but elevations (Z) in meters.
I need the contours intact (cant explode block and scale) to create a surface from.
The other part is this is a big file so anything by hand would be rediculous.
I need the final file where the x,y has stayed the same but the z has been adjusted to the correct foot elevation (scaled)

I'm having a random issue with the daylight ties lopes not tieing to the EG surface at all stations in the Corridor Section Editor. Some stations daylight fine. In plan view the daylight lines vary left & right as expected but don't display at all in Section Editor.
Some background info:2012 Civil 3D SP1 / 64 bit / WIN7Simple corridor used1 alignmentSame fg profileSame drefd EG surface (set all targets for daylight LT/RT)Only one assembly applied to entire corridor Attached are 2 captions of the issue I'm having which each have a cut & fill occurrence as well as a caption of the entire align. & corridor. I did try deleting corridor & recreating and even recreated a simpler assembly and still have the daylight issue in same areas of corridor.

I have autocad running on my partitioned mac and I have just created a multileader style with Datum triangle filled as the arrowhead symbol. In the view panel the symbol looks correct, but when I select the multileader with this datum style and add it to my drawing it appears as an unfilled triangle!

We've just started using ACA 2012 and have noticed when importing files created in ACA 2009 that structural members do not display properly. We use the structural column or beam to represent a rainwater or soil pipe and are expecting to see a cut through at the cut plane and nothing else however we are getting a couple of lines that represent the crank in the pipe and I cannot turn them off. I'm sure that a setting has been introduced somewhere however after two weeks of looking I am still in the dark.
I've attached a file created in ACA 2009 that displays the problem in ACA 2012

I am running ACA 2011 X64.I have some leaders that I copied from one drawing into another drawing.
When copied the leaders do not display their attributes. I cannot seem to figure out how to do it. I have made sure they are both in the same annotative scale and that both have the current scales loaded.

Having a problem when uploading a file with multiple artboards where a few boards will drop elements from the page or will be cut-off on the bottom. The artboards are the correct size in the file and all elements display properly when saving. Resaving, and reuploading will fix some issues, but cause new ones - it's really random.

A week ago all was well in Premiere Pro CS6 world. One day I updated Windows, next day all but a few .mp4 video files opened in Premiere Pro, played fine as well, EXCEPT for the fact that the display now has green (sometimes multicolour, sometimes a solid green block) bars in the lower third of the screen. See screenshot below.
These same files open/display fine in After Effects, Photoshop and VLC- and Quicktime players. I'd read something fromyears ago about Windows Updates causing this, so removed one of therecent KB's to no avail. I did install AdobeMediaEncoderTrial_64-6.0.3-mul-AdobeUpdate and DynamicLinkMediaServerRetail-1.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate and reverted to Quicktime 7.6 but nothing makes a difference.
In the end, I formatted C:, reinstalled Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, downloaded/installed about 260 updates and reinstalled CS6 (and then the aforementioned AME and DLMS updates and QT7.6) but it's STILL the same problem.
Also tried exporting (part of) one of these files, just to see if it wasn't just a display problem: the exported file with the same properties as the original also has the green bars.

I am having a problem with Photoshop CS5 Extended V 12.1.
The problem:
When I open some files, some shades of BLUE colour is displayed as BLACK However the same file opens and displays correctly if I open it using Photoshop Elements V9.0.3.When I save the file as JPEG and re-open it, the problem returns.Opening the JPEG file in any other application, including PS Elements, does not cause the problem
Source of files The original files came from a Nikon camera, saved in RAW format. It is possible that the original files were corrupted in some way as the shots had an unusual blue cast - which was easily resolved by Photoshop when I originally opened the RAW files.problem is not universal as I've not been able to reproduce it with any other files (RAW or JPEG).
I have calibrated my monitor display settings sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (default)
Other information:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 12.1
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bitVersion: 6.1 Service Pack 1
System architecture: Intel CPU

I just installed CS4 on a lovely new Dell notebook with WUXGA display (1920x1200) and am having a problem that I have never seen before. When the brush tip is small (up to 35 px at 100%)Â I see the entire circle defining it, but as I move into larger and larger tip sizes the circle starts to disappear from the bottom right, becoming just a smaller and smaller circular fragment until it disappears entirely at around 300 px. If I select the center crosshair, this also disappears around 200px (when only a small circular crescent is left), and then reappears at around 400px (minus any trace of the circle). It is obviously some sort of display issue: if I change the image size the behavior is the same when the circle is the same size onscreen, so it is the display size and not the absolute pixel size which determines it. This happens whether I choose normal or full-size tip. Has anyone experienced this? It is not only annoying, it is positively serious, since at certain sizes I cannot even tell where or how large the brush is. Clear type on or off makes no difference. I have not noticed any odd display behavior with any other program.

I have a multi-story model with "Existing" and "New Construction" phases present on each level. The graphic overrides are functioning properly on the 1st Floor (existing is displayed in lighter line weight and half-tone) but for some reason the overrides are not applying to the 2nd Floor.

Revit 2013. I Set up a color scheme for rooms. colors are fine but the colors go to middle of walls (interior and exterior) even tho walls are set to room bounding. Room and area calcs set to wall finish but in plan view and in sheet view the colors go to wall centers. Plotting the colors override/cover wall graphics. Created a quick "dummy" project using masonry walls and it worked fine.
Also, if you link a revit file with additional rooms how do you add those to color schedule? Cant jus add room in host file - says its not properly enclosed. putting room in the linked file doesn't seem to allow room to be read/scheduled/displayed by name/number-just shows the room X with a + sign in middle. Adding color to linked file gets nothing but I want it controled in host anyway.

Alright, so I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and Illustrator CS5.
Times New Roman Regular does not display correctly on my machine when using Illustrator CS5, but Bold, Italic, Italic Bold display just fine. Times New Roman does display correctly in every other program I use. InDesign, Word, etc. I've attached a screenshot to show what I mean.
