AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Can't Offset Horizontal Alignment To Create Pline

Dec 19, 2012

This is with Civil 3D 2013.  I am able to create a pline by offsetting an alignment using any drawing on any other workstation in our office, but on my machine I get an error: "1 object(s) were filtered out." when I try to select the alignment.

This leads me to searching for some system variable or something that is different on my machine.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Convert 2D Pline With OCS Into 3D Pline In WCS

May 29, 2012

I have LWPOLYLINEs that represent a cross section of a train tunnel. Each LWPOLYLINE lists its 2D points in an Object Coordinate System.My task is to create 3D Polylines in WorldCoordinateSystem using those LWPOLYLINEs.I have posted a drawing with sample objects.

I have attached a sample drawing. Drawing was created with Civil 3D 2013, but I exporttoautocadr12dxf'd it and then save to 2004 dwg so most should be able to open it.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Data Reference Alignment Stationing Differs From Original Alignment

May 3, 2012

I using a data reference/shortcut to properly label an alignment in paperspace. However when I reference the alignment in and apply the labels the aren't the same as the original alignment that I am referencing. Is there a setting where I am supposed to apply a new beginning station.

Also it seems as though the stationing(distance) isn't even matching up 1:1 with the original drawing. For example in the original base drawing my alignment starts at 10+00 with the next PI at 14+76.98, but the stationing on the reference alignment starts at 0+83.33 with the very same PI being labeled as 1+23.08. So the very same distance is 476.98' in the real design and the drawing it's being referenced in, but the stationing of the referenced alignment shows it as 39.75 Units.

I've attached a screen of the beginning of the alignment.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Alignment Label Style Set After Alignment Has Been Created?

Jul 18, 2013

Using Civil 3d2012, Is it possible to change the alignment label style set after the alignment has been created?  For example, for an alignment that was created with alignment label set X - change the label set to alignment label set Y?  It seems like this should be pretty easy, I must be missing something obvious.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Style Vs Alignment Labels - PI Treated Differently?

Apr 6, 2013

I have a question on Alignment PI's. (Point of Inflection/Intersection)I have an alignment where some PI's have curves, others are merely hard bends.

Is there a way to automatically label the PI's even if they have an associated curve? (I'd like PI, PC and PT)Alternatively, can I only show markers at PI's without curves?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Launching Alignment Grid View / Alignment Entities

Aug 11, 2013

Launching alignment grid view/alignment entities,

I’m wondering if there is a way to launch alignment grid view/alignment entities (attached) without the need to first launching “alignment”? This dialogue box is quite essential in editing the values of radius, degree of curvature and deflection angle for the selected curve.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Begin Station Inherited From Another Alignment

Aug 8, 2012

Can I inherit the station from one alignment as the begin station for another alignment?

For example. Alignment 1 is 1000 ft long and starts at sta 0+00.

At sta 8+01, Alignment 2 begins and goes off in another direction.

I manually enter 8+01 for begin station Alignment 2. Life is good. Still in the design stage, and customer needs to modify Alignment 1 to avoid something. Now Alignment 2 intersects Alignment 1 at sta 8+15, but same N/E coordinates.

I manually enter 8+15 for begin station Alignment 2.

It would be better if Alignment 2 could inherit the begin station based on the new stationing from Alignment 1.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Ellipse To Pline

Aug 8, 2012

Recieved a ACAD converted Microstation File for use in an upcoming construction project. Would like to convert all of the existing ellipses to polylines. Have read several threads that lead me to believe redrawing them is about the only real way to do it. Posting here in hopes of a solution. Drawing contains 127 ellipses, and I dont want to redraw all of them!!

Currently on C3D2012.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Moving Rotating Pline - Some Edges Are Locked

Sep 21, 2013

I have some imported points and a polyline created with those.

When i try to rotate the pline around a point it seems that some edges are locked? 

Even if I copy this pline in an empty area alone and try to rotate it again i get the same resulsts.i tried the move comand with a vertex as a base and the same reults.

I do not know where the edges are locked .

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Perpendicular Line From Point Laying On A Line / Pline

Sep 30, 2013

 I have a line or a pline segment and i want to start a line from a point laying there and go perpendicular outwards. Is there a way to do it with tracking?

Yes, i saw the command draw line at an angle but i find it a little bit complicated for a simple task like that. I am sure autodesk have a simplest solution about that.

If i am already at the draw line mode and i can easy catch the tracking perpendicular to previous segment but if i want to start from another line and go perpendicular i cannot make the tracking work.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile View Of Alignment In Civil D & Google Earth Varies

Dec 25, 2012

I imported Google earth surface (at eye alt 600m) to civil 3d 2012 and created an alignment of length 181m.

When I exported same alignment to Google earth , it showed the length as 190m ( the difference increases with increase in length of alignment) And also the profile view of the alignment in the Civil D & Google earth varies.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Get An Alignment By Name

Mar 20, 2012

I am looping through the civilapplication.activedocument's alignmentIDs collection and looking to see if the name of the alignment is the one I want.

Is there a more direct way, where I could use the name like

doc.GetAlignmentId("somename")?

maybe GetAlignmentIds() is only way to access the align collection though,

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Delete Alignment Using API

Apr 16, 2012

I thought that finding the alignmentId, and using the

doc.GetAlignmentIds().Remove(delId);

would do it.

I know i have the right alignmentId, it all cheaks out, there must be something I have to do after removing from the ID collection.

I am doing a Tr.Commit(); but that does not seem to be good enough.

full code is: (_returnMsg is a local var for the class containing this method)

public void DelC3DHAlign(string name) { _returnMsg = "Error, No alignments available";
//access Civil 3D
CivilDocument doc = CivilApplication.ActiveDocument;
try { using (Transaction tr = HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase.TransactionManager.StartTransaction

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Comes Up Short

Nov 13, 2012

I have a project that comes and goes. It was actually started in Softdesk. Right now I'm working in Civil 3D 2012. I have an alignment that represents the left edge of pavement. Although I'm calling an offset alignment. It was created before they existed. So it's not linked to the centerline. There have been many changes to it over the past few years. Now it has a problem.

I wanted to edit in the Panorama. Right-click > Edit Alignment Geometry > select Alignment Grid View from the Alignment Layout Tools. When I went to the last segment in the Gird View, which was near where I wanted to edit, a segment about two thirds of the way along the Alignment was highlighted. Further investigation showed that although the whole Alignment would highlight when selected, all commands said the Alignment ended much sooner than the end station.

I've found that that alignment has been broken for quite a while but was intact at one time. My question is - What's the best way to repair/recreate it. I know I can explode it and create a replacement Alignment from the resulting entities. But is that the best way?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Name Cap Style

Oct 24, 2012

This is strange. I wanted to label just the alignment name in a couple of places. I have an Alignment Name Label Style that does this. I now notice that it will capitalize some of the lower case P's in the curve label. Not the line label just the curve. They're applying the same style. It also changes back to lower case if I drag the label.

The style has one component and that is the Alignment Name and has Preserve Case set.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: FG Elevations At Alignment

Sep 12, 2005

. How to assign proposed elevation to layout alignment along each station?. I know there is a way in LDT to assign proposed elevations to s specific range of stations or the full alignment, under menu "profiles/ FG Vertical Alignments/Create COGO Points" I am looking for the same one in C3D.

2. How to add connecting alignment label and station in profile view. For example I have an main alignment and in-between lot of other alignments are meeting with this alignment.

I want to show in profile view of the main alignment the meeting alignment's name and the station it meets with?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment From Corridor

Feb 7, 2013

When creating an alignment from corridor feature (ditch invert level), the created alignment is not following the selected line (see image bellow). The alignment seams to be created from the first point of the feature line to the last point and ignores all the other points. The vertical alignment created at the same time seams to be correct.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Units

Mar 26, 2012

AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012

I am trying to create an alignment from existing polyline that I had recieved from another companies drawing.  It was alignment in their drawing but only comes through as linework. That's not the problem.  The problem is that when I try and create a new alignment out of the existing polyline, the units are way off.  the existing drawing had ticks every 100 feet obviously, but after I create my alignment, I get like 400-500 feet in before the existing one gets 100.  Trying to find a scale issue, but not seeing one.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Volumes Along An Alignment

Mar 13, 2013

I am trying to find an easy way of calculating the volumes I have been asked to do. I have a road, with an alignment created along the centreline. I have created a finished surface which incorporates the cutout for the boxing, and I have been supplied with a surface of the natural (original state) ground.

What I have been asked to do is calculate volumes at either 10m or 20m chainages (station).

Obviously, I can create a boundary, and then shift the boundary to where I want the volumes to be, but this road is 3km long, resulting in calculating 150-300 different volumes. The road is not a straight line either and includes a number of bends.

Is there a quick way of calculating this? Or do I need to use the boundary option?

The way they would normally calc it is to add all the details from the cross-sections into an excel sheet, and makesome complex formulas to figure it out. Even doing the boundary method is quicker than that.
