Is there a way to have no layer value set for the description keys. I set all the layers, and now I realize I'd rather set this to no layers (boxes are all unchecked). I'd rather see no value under the layer column, but there doesn't seem like a way to set this.
View 1 RepliesI have an attribute blocks and this att block has two tag values , is there a simple code for to change 1st tag values automaticly according to 2nd values ?
for example :
1st tag (50x50) - 2nd tag ( 100 ) ==> 50x50-100
if i enter 201 valuse to 2nd tag then 1 st tag has to change as 100x100
if i enter 501 valuse to 2nd tag then 1 st tag has to change as 150x510
I attached a jpg file for explain much better

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 2 surfaces that I am sampling and have the bands depicted in the attached. I would like to have all bands with 1 digit of precision and the values in the Cover Depth band add up. The Cover Depth is supposed to be subtracting the two but is often off by one digit. I have tried changing the rounding options in C3D but there is always disagreement between the data in the bands.
I tried searching for this issue to no avail. Perhaps I need to have an expression to do the rounding is what one case eluded to. Seems that C3D may use a type of rounding that rounds to the nearest even number?

Attached are two files: 1 file has 0 values on the volume table, and the other file has Sample line group Properties.
Surface 3 is the surface that has the existing actual survey points . Do I have to pick another surface : the other two are the surfaces I created in the Corridor as surface boundaries , Top and Datum
is it possible to export elevations from a surface at a given interval? i can easily export all the data i used to build the surface, but now I am wondering if its possible to export/extract the surface to a CSV or TXT file with a position and elevations, say, every 5 feet?

I've been having a hard time googling this question as it's hard to put in bite-size words. I'm looking for an easy way to take the alpha levels of each pixel on one layer, and then combine that with the color levels of each pixel on another layer. Let me give you an example. I want to take the alpha levels of image 1, replace the colors with the colors of image 2, and be left with image 3 (Only no background, because the alpha level should be zero!)

I achieved the effect you see in image 3 by using the "difference" blending, and then inverting the image. Problem is, I've still got the gradient as a background which doesn't really work because that icon needs to sit on anything.
C# public bool FindStationAndElevationAtXY(double x,double y,ref double station,ref double elevation)
I don't understand this method. API documentation says that "Finds the station and elevation values at the given X,Y coordinate." but this method return a bool value.I don't understand neither "ByRef".
I am creating some simple grading objects from feature lines. I am targeting my existing ground surface with a 2:1 fill slope. My resulting surface shows me 5' contours, which I think should all be spaced out at constant 10' offsets, but they are not. When I measure the offsets I get different values ranging on 10.2' to 9.7' (depending on the section of the feature line I am looking at). How to make the slope build properly with a true 2:1 offset between contours? What good does this grading tool do if you can't get a properly constructed slope?

Civil 3D (2013) how much you have to improve....
I was undertaking a cut and fill analysis but the values were very different. Evaluating spot levels the depth was given as 1.2m but the volume surface stated it was only .6m.
After a while I noticed that the master surface had been "corrupted" duing a recovery, all definitions to the controlling corridor and other objects had been removed and a snapshot added with the description "added during recovery".
I had to remove the surface and start from scratch re-building the definitions.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have learned the hard way that Civil 3D has a Curve Tolerance value that is to be used when applying sample lines and computing average end cross section volume calculations along an alignment with a curve. How I discovered this was by double checking my self and using a straight alignment verses an alignment with a curve. When using the alignment with a curve the average end cross section volumes differ. I did some reading in Autocad help and it mentions that sometimes a curve tolerance value is needed when using curves and this value is changed in the compute or edit materials window. What is a curve tolerance?" The edit materials window prompts a user to enter a Degree value. How do I calculate this curve tolerance value? I assume it is related to one of the values of a curve.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy workflow consists of building a point cloud object from a LAS file, filtering it for ground data, and and building a surface object with it. Breaklines are inserted into a surface object, and then the surface object is exported to a DEM file to be used in a GIS application. The problem is that Civil 3D rounds the elevations to 1-foot intervals, even when the file is structurally floating point. How to override this rounding to get floating point values that reflects the original data?
View 7 Replies View RelatedWith 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 ?
Copy a corridor successfully? I'd like to try this just a little worried about the explosion of evil this may cause to my Civil 3D session.

we are updating fron LDD 2004 to Civil 3D 2012 needles to say it a huge change. I've got my template almost done I'm just having one problem. With LDD any point that came in with a raw descripitoin not within the description key it would be placed in the current layer with point number, descripton and elevation. How do I make that happen with Civil3D do I have to change my default lable settings? When I import points with a raw description not within my description key it places the point on Layer 0 and only shows the node no point number.
View 2 Replies View RelatedParts of my drawing were not allowing me to distance, dimension or trim them, so I suspected that some of the lines weren't flat. I just checked a troublesome line and it has a crazy Z value. I tried changing Start Z and End Z to "0," but that just moved the line to another place. When I put it back, the Z value changed back. If I'm able to grip points to dimension something, the dimension lines appear way below the points. Other parts of the drawing are fine.
I think I accidentally did something to the WCS, but I don't know what or how to fix this.
