AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Alignment From Object Results In Wrong Length?

Sep 17, 2013

I am working on creating an alignment from a single polyline. The polyline, which was originally created in Carlson 2012, is a flat polyline that is about 1200 feet in length. When I select it with create alignment from object, it accepts it and seems to work. For some reason though, the stationing is way off --- e.g. the true 50' mark is showing up as 0+04.17 which results in an end station of 0+99.31 on a 1191' polyline.

edit> I also have tried this with a brand new polyline I created in civil3d, same issue.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Stationing Set To Wrong Units?

Jun 20, 2011

I created an alignment from an existing line and am having an issue with the stationing. The length of the original line is about 14,666 ft but when I convert it to an alignment it is 1,222 (1/12 of original).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment From Object

Nov 19, 2013

I have started having issues when creating alignments from objects.

I am building roads from plans for setout on site, I receive 2d linework and need to build the 3d road up. I join the required linework into a polyline so I can make a few checks that the lengths and so on are correct before I continue. Then usually I would just go and make an alignment from the polyline.

e.g. Monday I was setting up 3 intersections and dealing with 6 kerb returns on there. The first 2 created correctly, then when I created the 3rd one I couldn't see it. Then when I did zoom extents it was way off to the left and a mirror of the linework I was trying to create it from. It did it to a further 2 of them and the other 2 came out correctly.

Now it is doing to me when trying to create a centreline.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Select Alignment Via Object Id

Oct 13, 2013

I have a data grid view with all alignments included in the drawing file. If I choose an alignment in data grid view, I have Id of that alignment.

I have a button, and I would like that if i press that button then selects that alignment in the drawing(graphic). I would like that there was only one object selected, and if there are more selected objects before,then un-selected them.

I have seen in internet, the code snipset:

"Autodesk.Autocad.Internal.Utils.SelectObjects(objectId[ ] Ids)"

Is it obligatory that objectId be able a List or array?

and

"Editor,SetImpliedSelection"

But I don´t understand them. Are there any full samples about his?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Get Alignment Object From Corridor State?

Jan 14, 2013

i am trying to get the coordinate value for the current station in the subassemblies.

i found

Autodesk.Civil.Roadway.DatabaseServices.BaseBaseline.StationOffsetElevationToXYZ(ByRef Autodesk.AutoCAD.Geometry.Point3d) As Autodesk.AutoCAD.Geometry.Point3d

but how you get the basebaseline?

in the alignment object there is no convert station to coordinate only coordinate to station. which is useless in this case.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create T Intersection With X Alignment

Jun 20, 2012

The street is a 'T'. The alignment is extended... Sta 0+00 starts 100' back and the intersection at centerlines starts at 1+00. The alignment is masked between 0+00 and 1+00, but that obviously doesn't make a difference for the intersection wizard.

The intersection wizard does not give me a choice, it just presumes a 4-way intersection. How do a do/choose a 3-way 'T' intersection in this case?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Get Alignment Object From Data Referenced Corridor Surface

Oct 25, 2012

is it possible to get the alignment name which the corridor surface is built from when the surface is being data referenced. in other word no corridor as the middleman.

the way i see it is when corridor suface is referenced, it becomes a regular surface and loses some properties such as parent alignment.

i am still using COM. maybe .net can do it? either way works.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create An Alignment - Correct Dimension

Feb 17, 2013

I have a drawing and want to create an alignment in Civil 3D. I have my line, which is 987.83' long. However, when I create the alignment, the stationing runs from 0+00 to 118+53.92 instead of 0+00 to 9+87.83. This is a factor of 12. The properties tab reports a length of 11853.92 for the line as well. However, when I dimension the line, it displays the correct dimension that I want in feet.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Feature Line From Alignment / Profile?

Oct 25, 2013

C3D 2013, Win 7, 64 bit

When I try to create a feature line using an alignment/ profile, sometimes it gives me a feature line for the entire alignment, even though my profile is only a small segment. I made sure I selected the correct profile, and I even deleted all other surface profiles just in case. But it still gives me a wonky feature line for the entire alignment.

However, in the same file, other profiles have worked perfectly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: No Response After Selecting Create Profile View When Creating Alignment

May 16, 2013

Having a rough time with Pipe Networks! I am working an example from the Mastering C3D book (P. 371) as in the following steps:

1.Clicked SS structure(16)

2.Selected Create Alignment from Network on ribbon

3.Selected last structure(18), hit Enter

4.Changed options as needed in Create Align from Network - Create Profile and Profile View check box: Selected

5.Changed options and clicked Create Profile View

At this point the program pauses, then a dialog box trys to partially fill the screen but is all white then fades away as fast as it appeared and I'm stuck with a paperweight that beeps at me everytime I click the mouse, no panning or zooming response at this time. The command line is prompting me for the profile origin. I can switch to other apps and bring up TM and when I attempt to end C3D then it tells me that it can't because waiting for response. I can then cancel the prompt to save the drawing and C3D exits the active command and control is returned.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Changing Lane Width Not Affecting Resulted Values Of Length And Run Off Length

May 11, 2013

With using superelevation wizard in Civil 3d 2012, changing the lane width is not affecting the resulted values of transion length and run-off length, Is that correct ? ( as civil is using standerd AASHTO tables which assume that lane width typically is 3.6m )

Also, There is only 2 tables for 2-lanes and 4-lanes roadway, Is it for total road width or for one directon only, and what about different no. of lanes ?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Merged Frame Generator Members Equal Wrong Total Length?

Jan 21, 2013

I have a feeling this goes way back to the first release of INV we had (release 14?). Basically the merged FG member length seems to be calculated using the member centre line instead of real lengths. See the attached Pack-N-Go.

The view on the left is a Merged FG member. The view in the middle is individual FG members based on a line of symmetry in the same sketch. Both are placed using the mid point option in the FG dialogue. The views on the right are the 3 separate members used for the middle view.

The Merged length shows 722 mm whereas adding the 3 member lengths (RH view) equals 740 mm. 18 mm short, or 2 sets of 9 mm (shown in the middle view) which represents the end cuts to the middle member in the RH view.

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.
