AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Elevation Banding (2D) Style - Doesn't Exist
Jun 1, 2012
I have created existing and proposed surfaces in Civil 3D 2008 and I'm trying to create a volume surface to produce a cut & fill map. The problem I'm running into is everything I try to follow mentions choosing Elevation Banding (2D) as the style. The only style I have to choose from is Standard. Does the Elevation Banding (2D) style normally come with the program? Or is this something you have to create?

I have a surface that has Elevation Banding but I also have an air photo in the drawing. Can you apply transparency to elevation banding so that the air photo shows up.

In Civil 3D 2010, how does one output the volume of earthworks in terms of elevation bands of for example 1.5m?
Using the TIN volume surface, I've already established the total volume of earthworks (cut). However, as I have pointed out earlier, the data is required in terms of elevation bands of 1.5m.

Is there a way to change or create a new scheme (banding) by elevation? For eg. I would like to use only a range of grey no other colors.

I am using Civil 3d 2012 and an trying to apply elevation banding (one color) to a surface that is completely flat. Everything seems to be in order but nothing shows up. If I add another point file to it that has a variety of elevations then the elevation bands show up, if i remove it it disappears again. I can view the boundary and get elevation readings when I mouse over the surface.

Today I created a TIN Volume Surface. The volume surface seems to have a "resolution" issue if you will when displaying using elevation banding. In the attached screenshot note how the edges of the surface are "squared" or pixelated. Also, the blue lines are "hide" boundaries, and they have the same effect. I've created volume surfaces before with no issues until now.
The volume surface compares 2 surfaces that were created from nothing but contours. Some of the contours can be seen in the attached image.
I've tried REDRAW and REGEN, the image looks the same in model space and paper space, I've tried closing AutoCAD and reopening the file. I deleted the volume surface and then created a new one... I'm sure there's just a setting somewhere that I'm missing.
For comparison, also attached is a screenshot a "normal" volume surface that I created before. This one has no "hide" boundaries, but the edges of the surface aren't "squared."

Is there a way to add a column that would show for each elevation range the percentage of the total area?

I am working on a large park project. I have a proposed and existing surface. I have created a volume surface to show elevation banding with cut and fill ranges. I need to create a drawing for someone who doesn't have civil 3d showing all the "cut" areas. They really want a boundary of hatch. What is the best way to do this after I change my analysis to -30 feet cut to 0 feet cut.

If I have calculated the superelevations and then edit the alignment (for example,I modify the length of spiral), the superelevations doesn´t recalculate. Why?
The guitar (superelevations) in profile view is old. If I load again the style profile view, the data are the same about superelevations.

In the documentation API 2014: for SuperelevationCriticalStationCollection appears the property "Item":
[URL]
but I´m trying to use it and it doesn´t exist.
public static void Breaksegment(Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.ObjectId identificador) { try { Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Database db = doc.Database; Editor ed = doc.Editor; using (DocumentLock docLock = doc.LockDocument()) { using (Transaction trans = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { Alignment align = trans.GetObject(identificador, OpenMode.ForWrite) as Alignment; SuperelevationCriticalStationCollection criteriaStationColl = align.SuperelevationCriticalStations; criteriaStationColl.Item trans.Commit(); } } } catch (System.Exception ex) { System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } }

I have a surface with all sorts of heights, and want to add color to different heights. Getting the color there is not that difficult, but how do I swap them around? i.e. red is 'low ground' and blue is 'high ground'. In Holland we use it the other way around though, so blue should be low ground and red high ground.
Where exactly do I change this? I've tried it in the surface style tab, surface properties tab, analysis tab, and some others, but no success so far.

I've created a triangulation volume surface to compare two surfaces. Under the analysis tab in Surface Properties I have banded my levels in metre intervals and coloured the bands accordingly. I would now like to display the 'banding' in my drawing. Under the information tab I should be able to select 'Elevation Banding (2D)' as a Surface Style, however this is missing and I can only select 'Standard'... How to get this selection back.

Recently I have purchased the above software to be installed on a 32 bit PC. However, the USB installation that came is 64 bit and the free trial on Autodesk website, although it offers the 32 bit, is also 64 bit.
It seems that the 32 bit version does not exist. Is there a way around this? I was hoping to download the 32 bit trial version and using the serial number and product key of the 64 bit.

Civil 3D 2011, updates installed - I have a user who is manually importing points into his drawing. He has set the default label style in his command settings to a specific style, but no matter what he does the points come in with the previously set default style (the out-of-the-box label style). We've tested this in a new drawing with the same results. We've tested this on several computers with the same results.
My initial thought was that something on the network was holding this setting somehow. We disconnected his computer from the network with the same results.
What could be causing this label style to stick?

In my drawing, I inserted a raster image file. I converted it into a block so I can modify it and I scaled it like this:
img_before.jpg
I saved my drawing and I close AutoCAD, but when I open AutoCAD again the image shown on the drawing file is not the same image that I had inserted previously.
img_after.jpg
The image shown is one that I had inserted before the first one but I had erased it from the file because I had to crop it in photoshop to reinsert it again.
I used the purge command to purge the block, I used the image command and i detached the image.
But the image says "unreferenced" when I do the "image command" even though it has the right location and folder. I don't know what to do anymore.

I have a problem with exporting layers from dwg to pdf. Problem is that i can export (or print) drawing but i missing some layers in layer manager in pdf. I have drawing with 150 layers (from other co-workers) but only mine 4 layers doesn't appear. I have check in ACAD in layer prop manager if they are plottable but this is not a problem for content from those 4 layers are exported in pdf but not in layers they have to be (those layers are missing)!
I use ACAD 2012
edit: i found out that layers doesn't appear because contetnt on them are only blocks. for eg. block is on layer 1 but contetnt of block is on layer 2 so i see only layer 2 in pdf but not layer 1

When I try to create a new font style using the standard Autodesk Swiss fonts, I get the message "font file doesn't exist". I can see that the fonts are in the AutoCAD fonts folder and that I have a file path set to that folder.

I believe a dwg I am trying to access is affected by the acad.vlx virus as an alert comes up to check autodesk for solution (ID: TS13717811) however the published solution doesn't seem to work for the latest version of AutoCAD LT 2012 as it asks me to access a file in the support folder which doesn't exist on my system.

I've got a problem with a vertex on my model. When I go into the skin modifier or edit poly, this one vertex doesn't seem to exist. It doesn't show up and I cannot move it, yet in the skin modifier it is being affected by something. How can I get this vertex to reappear without completely borking my model's skinning?

I am trying to create an elevation label that will give me the spot elevation followed by the letters "TC" and then on the line below subtract 4 inches from the elevation followed by the letters "BC". It's easy enogh to add the letters but the simple equation of elevation - 4 inches eludes me.

When I snap a point to an object, the point takes on the elevation of the object. I would rather the point's elevation stay as is.
-changing osnapz variable
-latest civil 3d service pack
A few weeks ago I did not have this problem but once my computer was switched to the company's global server and c3d was reinstalled the problem appeared. Furthermore (post switchover), when a colleage of mine prepared a simple test drawing with just a line and a point, he was able to snap to that line without the point changing elevation. When he sent that drawing to me and I tried snapping the point to the object, the same problem occured with the point taking the elevation of the line object. I suspect it is a system variable issue

i have some existing drainage pipe and structures in a base plan that i need to change the invert (which is the easy part) and the top elevation to the existing top elevation that does not meet the minimum presect in civil 3d 2012 is there a way to change these min. to match my exisitng elevation for example i have a catch basin invert is 15.45 top is 17.56 with a 18" rcp the cover will be less than 12" and i need to change this.

I have profile sheets I set up using our template. If I plot the layouts one at a time. I can see the existing grade line in the plot. If I publish all of the layouts at once. The existing profile doesn't plot.
I've checked the layer freeze setting and made sure there is a defined page setup to use in Publish. It's the same setup they plot individually with. I get the same result if I plot directly to our Toshiba printer or to PDF using the CutePDF driver.

I am building a surface and started looking at the triangles and found that some are going to non-existant points. I have unfrozen, checked, etc. all of my points to make sure they are not in the drawing.
