AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Delta Z Of Feature Line In Label

Aug 16, 2012

I have a plan I want to create a table of feature line (the ones used as ditch cl's) with the designation (ie R1), the overall length (this part I can do) and then the Delta z of the entire feature line. I can get segment Delta z, but not the entire Delta z.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Label Delta From A Curve To Non-tangent Line

Jun 19, 2012

I need to lable the delta of a PI in an alignment where one segment is an arc and the following is a non-tangent line.

Geometry points don't offer delta and Tangent Intersections won't label at PCs and PTs.

Is there an expression that can be used?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Feature Line Name To Label?

May 19, 2013

I am wanting to add the name of my feature line to a label style. I am trying to create a label style that will show Lot Number and Area. I know i can create parcels, but i dont want to! I have also created a map table that can do exactly what i want on polylines, but will not work on an xref. Labelling featurelines does work in xrefs.

how to add the name into a label style?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Feature Line Vertex Elevation Label?

Feb 22, 2010

I've seen a label style somewhere that can label the elevation of vertices and elevation points on feature lines. How to style or a procedure for creating a style for this?

I've found a couple of blogs that layout the steps for a style but it seems there are a few ways to do it so I'm looking for what could be considered the most effective/versatile approach.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment PI Label With Lat Long / Station And Delta Angle

Feb 27, 2013

We are trying to label the intersection points on an alignment with the following info:

Sta:
Delta Angle
LAT
LONG

We can make it work with a Northing and Easting, but there is no option for a LAT LONG under the tangent intersection labels.  I tried to make an expression that would format a Northing as a LAT but it just gave me jibberish.

I was able to do it but adding a point at each PI and making a point reference text, but you then have to select a different point for each label....  which works but it is still a multi step process.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Curved Label For Curved Feature Line?

Mar 8, 2013

How to create a flow arrow label for a feature line that parallels the curve?

I've a vague notion that this could be done with a dynamic block and a few fancy expressions.  I'm comfortable with expressions, but I've never used dynamic blocks at all, so I wouldn't know where to start.

To be clear, I know curved text is possible, but I'm looking for a curved line (ie an arc) that would look 'parallel' to the arc of the feature line (ie have the same centre point).  This would have to be dynamic to allow for different radii and for flipping to the left and right side of the feature line.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Changing Profile Line Label Style Causes Label String To Revert To Default

Sep 6, 2012

C3D 2013. We have profile line labels, some of which get manually edited (for example, change the "<[Tangent grade(FP|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|SD|OF)]>" to a static number such as 0.29%).

However, if you CTRL+Click and select one of these labels and change the style of that one label, then the manual edits are lost and the label reverts back to the default string.

Is there any way to turn this behavior off?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Remove Feature Line Used As Break Line When Creating Surface

Dec 11, 2012

I needed to remove a feature line that I used as a break line when creating a surface.   When I removed the feature line from the definition of the surface, the grading did not change.  It appears the points created by the feature line remain which is why grading didn't change.  The only work around was to delete these points. 

I noticed the same thing happens when I removed the surface boundary and inserted a new boundary.  why these points remain and how to remove when I delete boundary and feature line from surface?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Feature Line Projection

Sep 26, 2013

Is there any way to project feature lines into a profile when the plan view is xref'd? I have my plan view "existing topo" with all existing features/Figures and a existing surface.

My profile is a separate dwg with plan view xref'd and surface a data shortcut. Of course there are feature lines and Survey Figures in the existing top I want to project into the profile, but can't because it is an xref. Besides copying .

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Arc Or Feature Line As Breaklines

Jan 7, 2014

I am building a surface and have back of curb, curb face, and curb flowline going around a curve.  I cannot create the lines with the usual pline as they will cross due to poor field collect.  I created the curbs with multiple arcs.  I was then going to change them into Feature Lines and am wondering if I can then use them as breaklines in a surface.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Corridor Feature Line

Jan 7, 2014

I am building a corridor with the right side of the pavement fitting to the existing surface.The subassembly used to link the edge of pavement to the existing ground is LinkSlopeToSurface.

On the corridor created, the feature line (code P2) of the corridor surface (top) starts from the station 0+025, instead of 0+000.

I was wondering why there is no feature line P2 for station range 0+000 to 0+025? Does that mean the linkage to the existing ground surface not exist for the slope defined in the subassembly?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Feature Line Elevations

Mar 25, 2013

We are running Civil3d 2012. When converting a line or 3d poly to feature line, or just creating one it adds elevation points where it crosses surface breaklines even if you do not assign elevations. We want the feature to just have 2 elevations. The beginning and end. Is this a bug? Or is there another setting somewhere?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Tie Feature Line To Surface

Sep 4, 2013

I created a label for retaining wall that takes the z value from the start and end of a feature line. Works great except that it isn't dynamic. I have created the feature line in a grading sheet where the surface is data shortcut into it and I'm just using grips to make sure the ends are on the bottom and top of the retaining wall. Is there any way to dynamically pin/tie the feature line to a surface that has been data shortcut?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Contour Label Line

May 31, 2013

I have been creating contour surface labels, which utilize a 3-point  contour label line with grips to adjust, and this is my question:

when i create a single contour label, clicking specifically on a contour i want labeled, the contour label line with the 3-grips extends beyond several contours and thus places a label at every contour it touches.  i can manually fix this by shorting the line, but this seems very inefficient. 

1. is there a setting to have the label only placed on the center grip of the three?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Break A Closed Feature Line

Jul 28, 2011

I often use feature lines for parking lots and ponds.  They're great when they work, but they drive me NUTS when they don't - which is a lot of the time.  For parking lots and ponds, my feature lines usually close back on themselves.  That's when I have trouble breaking the feature line.  When I use BREAKFEATURE, I choose two points and this should, in theory, leave a gap in the feature line between those two points.  That's not what happens.  I end up with a huge gap between the first point I picked and a vertex point 5 or 6 vertices away.  It doesn't matter where I pick the breaking points.

I've also tried TRIMFEATURES.  I draw lines across the feature line where I would have chosen the breaking points.  But the portion that I want to remove is the portion that always remains.  It doesn't matter where I select the feature line to be trimmed (inside or outside of the cutting edges).

I think there may something wrong with the feature line itself.  Sometimes, if I erase the original and draw a new one, it will trim just fine.  But that's such a headache, and it doesn't always work.  If I knew what was causing the feature lines to go squirrely,  I would aviod it.  Unfortunately, it seems like breathing the wrong way can screw up a feature line.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Possible To Edit Feature Line Via Section?

Oct 22, 2012

I have a complex grading situation with a sewer near a drainage channel. Long story short.... I need to somehow look at my alignment section by section and try to establish a feature line that will represent my proposed top of slope. There are a ton of different constraints that I will not go into. My ultimate need is the ability to establish a feature line or 3d pline from the section view. I know that this is somehow possible via corridors. Im working with just an aligment and cross sections at every 25 feet. Is this possible?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Grade Extension Of Feature Line

Jun 12, 2013

We are working on a road widening scheme where one edge of the road is retained as far as possible while  other edge being  widened. I like to design  a retained channel line by extending the cross fall between the existing center line and the exiting channel line on to the design one.

It is possible in civil 3d to extend the gradient between two feature lines at some offset  from reference feature line?
