AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Points By Slope Distance?

Oct 8, 2013

I have a line at a constant grade. I need to create points along this line. The information given is in slope distance and these vary at times.

I've tried the point create methods and they all seem to calculate points at a horizontal distance. How do you enter the slope distance?

I know I can go back to basic Acad methods of divide, changing ucs so horizontal works etc.

wondering if it can be done in the create points commands?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Label Bearing And Distance Between 2 Points?

Mar 19, 2010

In LDD I could label a bearing and distance between 2 points. (Points - not actual surveyed points, but 2 spots I click)

In 3d 2010 I only can label a whole line, not only a portion that I choose. This has to be a label option still.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Slope Patterns - Grip And Drag Certain Points Along Feature Line

Jun 5, 2012

In order to create a swale, I created a feature line representing the bottom of the swale and graded up to an existing surface around its outer perimeter. The slope pattern looks ok when it initially generates the grading. I need to grip and drag certain points along the feature line in order to bring the top of slope lines of the swale close to the bottom of slope lines of an adjacent berm. As soon as I grip and drag the feature line, the slope pattern lines go awry. Instead of a short line then a long line, then short line, etc., the lines are all the same length. It actually appears as if short and long lines are overlapping each other.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Bearing / Distance Table Using Points?

Feb 25, 2013

I am using Civil 3D 2012.  I know how to label a line with bearing and distance.  What I would like to do is make a table with these bearings and distances referencing the point numbers.  For instance, I have a new ROW line that starts at point 1000 and changes direction at point 1001 and changes direction at 1002 and so on.  I need a table that shows Points 1000-1001 is ___ Bearing and ___ Distance.  

The lines are not parcel lines; they are only line segments.

Illustrator :: Create Multiple Expanding Outlines With All Points Equal Distance To Original Shape?

Feb 21, 2013

Here's an extremely simple example.. It works with a circle or a square, obviously because it has the same height and width. The problem is when you have irregular shapes, (or in this case, an oval). I know I've seen solutions to this in the past, but I just can't think of how to word this question and find them again.
 
I know you can create multiple strokes for an object in the appearance palette, but I'm looking for something more effective than just having colored stroke > white stroke > colored stroke> white stroke > etc.
 
Here's a couple examples of the kind of effect I'm looking for.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Shoulder Subassembly That Varies Slope In Relation To Lane Superelevation Slope

Jan 22, 2013

i need a shoulder subassembly that varies slope in relation to the lane superelevation slope. i know that i can get a subassembly for the shoulder that will follow the alignment superelevation xml data but in my case i can't use it because we are just adding a shoulder to an existing road. we're not changing the superelevation of the existing road, just milling and overlaying and widening. right now i've created a profile of the outside edge of the shoulder that gives me the correct shoulder slope but whenever i change my centerline profile i have to redo the shoulder profiles which is a real time suck.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Slope To Depth Of 10 Feet Than Change To 2:1 Slope

Aug 13, 2012

I am in the process of transitioning from land desktop to Civil 3D. I design roads in steep terrain and sometimes need to have my catch (daylight) slopes change. So my question is, how do I change a daylight slope at a specified depth? For example, from the shoulder of the road I want a 3:1 fill slope to a depth of 10 feet than change to a 2:1 slope until it catches the existing surface. Can this be built into a subassembly such that if the fill is less than 10 feet it will daylight correctly at a 3:1 and if the depth is greater than 10 feet then it carries the 3:1 for 10 vertical feet and then changes to the 2:1 until it daylights?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Points For Further Processing

Aug 5, 2012

I have this attached file.

If I list one of the objects, it is defined as a block. I have repeatedly tried to explode this but to no avail.

My intention is to convert these AutoCAD "points" as points in Civil 3D to process them further. When I use Points>Convert AutoCAD points commands, it returns me a "invalid selection" message.

How do I explode these blocks and convert them to Civil 3D point objects?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Using 4 Points To Create 4 Lines And 1 Parcel

Sep 18, 2013

I have 4 points (from "Points from file", I created Points #1, #2, #3 and #$ in the non-linear fashion).

1) I want to create 4 straight lines (connecting Pt#1-Pt#2, P#2-P#3, P#3-Pt#4, P#4-P#1) by using some Commands. What Commands in the Command Line should I use to create these 4 straight lines from these 4 points?

2) I want to create 1 parcel (connecting Pt#1-Pt#2-Pt#3-Pt#4-Pt#1) by using some Commands after "Parcel Creation Tools" => Draw Tangent-Tangent with No Curve is clicked.  What Commands should I use in the Command Line to specify these points to form a parcel?

I want, if possible, to create a profile (something that looks like a slice of the slope, so that the steps and profile of the slope is clear.

Can this be achieved? Will you be able to guide me through the process?

This is a fantastic option, but I have a problem the whole drawing is rounded to two decimal places.

But when I execute create block from Cogo points he round heights on all points to three decimal places,where the third decimal is 0.

Example height is H =198.36 after H=198.360.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Batch Create Points Along Multiple Polylines

Oct 9, 2013

I have the need to put COGO points along the vertices of multiple 3D polylines in a DWG.  I know how to do this individually for each 3DPL via the "Points>Create - Miscellaneous > Polyline Vertices - Automatic" or "CREATEPTPLYLNCTRVERTAUTO" command. Need tip on how to do this in a batch format for all the selected 3D PLines in the drawing without having to select each individual 3DPL and having to hit return to enter a description for each individual vertex?  I can do without having to add a description and can leave each description blank or enter the same description for each.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Create New Vertex Points In Line And 3D Polyline

Nov 24, 2013

I want to create new vertex points in feature line  and 3dpol.

I have this:
try
{
if (obj.GetType() == typeof(Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Polyline3d)) {
Polyline3d p3d = (Polyline3d)trans.GetObject(entRes.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForWrite);

[Code]....

In this code line:

oFtrLn.InsertFeaturePoint(punt, AeccLandFeatureLinePointType.aeccLandFeatureLinePointPI);
 
always catches the same Exception "the value is not within the expected range" .I have translated it because I get "El valor no está dentro del intervalo esperado". Perhaps is this: " Value does not fall within the expected range.".

I have tried it with different point3d values but always catches  Exception.

With pol3d I have similar problem.

I need to create points with surface elevations along sample lines. The points need to represent the verticies one would see in the section editor. I've attached an image of my section editor for one of my sample lines. I need to create points that represent these 24 verticies along this sample line and do so for the rest of my sample lines as well. Is there an automated process to create these points?
