I have a file saved in autocad 2013 (dwg file extension) that contains level curves and points similar that an autocad civil 3d file and also have the layers. I want to convert this file to a civil 3d file for doing section of the curves whit the program. I don't know if it exist a method or not directly or indirectly.
View 1 RepliesI would like to know if I have a survey study (topographical study) of a terrain with lots of point in 3d coordinates, is there any way to generate the level curves automatically?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently requested a .tin file from our surveyor. He sent the file. When making a surface from the .tin file, I got the error message, need the .pnt file as well. When I requested the .pnt file from our surveyor he sent a .txt file. It has the format x, y, z coordinates in a list. Without having to call and request info from the surveyor again, which he may not know how to do, can I convert the .txt file to a .pnt file?
Example of .txt file:

I have a .crd file which i need to convert to ASC1II file to then import into civil 3d to build a ground model.
I have used the survey link: [URL] ...
However when i click convert i get an error saying points not found, please see attached.
How i can go about importing the .crd file?
I had someone send me a .vwx file that I need to convert/import into AutoCAD3D 2010. The File/Import menu does not have an option for this type of file. They also sent a .dwg file but I expect I should be able to import the .vwx into any .dwg file.

Embedding substitutes fonts with OK button on prompt at best. Flattener forces a rasterize when trying to keep proper colors. Don't see many options beyond importing twice with both methods, then removing elements that don't work from each.

I'm wondering if there is a method to convert these baked keys to curves, so it will be possible to start cleaning up the animation. I'm fairly new to dealing with mocap. Perhaps there is a method for achieving this in Motion Builder rather than Maya, that I'm not aware of?

I have been able to undertake this with other software and have desperately tried to find this same function in Civil 3D .
Is there a command that returns the average level of any particular surface within a specified area, for instance if we have a generated a large surface and then draw a square in the middle of the surface, can it calculate the average level within the square only?
Im using Civil 3d 2012 and I couldn't find the function that I could offset the smooth curve alignment as shown on the attached pdf. I've looked through the offset alignments but those linear, curve-cube-reverse curve, curve-line curve doesn't work much.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I turn it off permanently? Or change the default to off? It's always on when I open my drawings.
I save the files with it off, but when I reopen, it's still on. A real pain in the butt when plotting since if I batch plot, all of my contours are off, which eliminates using batch plot entirely. Luckily, I only have 5 figures at the moment, but once we get to design phase I will have many more and require batch plotting.
I'm using civil3d 2013, I have never run into this before with any other versions.
I have alignment with 2 curves at the beginning and end that I want to keep. It has a few PIs in between ke that are not supposed to have curves, but Civil 3D added them in (very short 200 ft radius curves), but I need to take all but the first and last curves out.
I tried setting Constraint Editing - toggled OFF lock all parameter constraints. Then I went into the data and tried to change the parameter. Can't get the curve out. Is there a way to convert a PI from one with a curve to one without a curve?
I can't afford to redraw this alignment - it's being referenced via Data Shortcuts to multiple drawings being used by me and my designer / already has my design profiles and existing profiles attached to it.
How to do this? - Delete the curves and make them PIs only? (without curves).

When I create a line label, one of the components available is “Direction Arrow”. This component is not available for “Curve” labels. I would really like to use C3D labels to indicate direction (I realize curves don't have a 'direction', but I don’t mind manually flipping and reversing the arrow). Is there any other label option in C3D that will draw a direction arrow for curves?
I'm working on a runway in Civil 3D 2011. I want to transition cross slopes along the runway. i.e. 1.5% for sta 1+00 to 10+00 and then transition into 1.0%. I thought super elevation would be the best way to do this (I dont want any actual super elevation, just transitions in cross slope). When I select the alignment and "Calculate/Edit Superelevation" i get the following message in the commanding line:
"_AeccCalcEditSuperelevation No superelevation data has been calculated for the selected reference alignment." It does not bring up the wizard.
My runway alignment doesn't have any curves and I'm thinking that's the problem. Is is possible to create super elevation without curves?
I am used to drafting surveys using Eagle Point Coordinate Geometry & Boundary Survey & I am now moving over to C3D, & I am trying to reproduce a boundary survey in C3D 2010, when it comes to Tangent & Non Tangent curves there does not appear to be any routine that allows you to create them in logical sequence or otherwise from the geometrical info provided on paper maps i.e. Radius, Delta Angle & Length, are there any survey techs on here that have been able to resolve this issue?
