View 4 RepliesI have an FDO layer which I am styling like so:
Concat ( FDO_LAYER1, Concat ( '
', FDO_LAYER2 ) )
This layer is styled so that all text is centered. In this case, FDO_LAYER2 is having it's text left aligned. I'm pretty sure this is due to the method I am using for a new line. Is there something else I can use to break the line and maintain the center styling?
Using a second point for FDO_LAYER2 is not an option.
How I could create a label for the curb return grade as shown on the attached file. The label is on a curve.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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?
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?
I have multi line text i want to break in one text suppose i have 3 word in multi line text
so i want to break separate like i-love-you as well
I am trying to create a feature line style that would include markers similar to minor stations of an alignment at the End Points and 1/4D, 1/2D & 3/4D locations. The thought is that I could use these on curb returns, and the markers would identify the locations we provide construction staking.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Is there a way to have a multiline point description? For example, in the raw description, i wrote out the text, but I would like to return a line for the parentheses.

When adding break lines to a surface, a dialog box like appears that asks for weeding factors and supplementing factors. What I would like to know is, how can I change the defaults to reflect the settings needed on my project.
I am using C3D 2009.
Can you put line break in text in the data box when creating a chart.
i.e. if you have a bar chart with text underneath each bar, can you break it when you’re entering it instead of manually afterwards
when I switch tab once at the end of the line sits the line break outside of the paragraph text frame..The background color so then runs out of the frame.A wish at left line intent (or right) it should be possible to fill these also with the background color and a function that assigns every second line is a background color..

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?
Unable to change line label precision (both bearing and distance).
The goal is N10d10'10"E, 100.00'
Civil 3D 2012 is giving N10d10'10.00", 100.000'
I am using a template with the distance precision set to 2.
The drawing setting->Ambient settings distance precision are set to 2.
The feature settings distance precison is set to 2.
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?
I have a line label style that consists of two blocks (crowsfeet). The blocks are taking on the properties of the current layer when xrefed. I have enclosed a couple of drawings to show this behavior.
Open the "crowsfeet sheet" drawing. You will notice the crowsfeet are green.
Change the current layer and regen. The crowsfeet will change to the color of the current layer.
To take this one step further:
Freeze the current layer in the current viewport. The crowsfeet disappear.
Change the current layer. The crowsfeet reappear with the color of the current layer.
The objects in the blocks are on layer 0 with a color of bylayer. Changing the color to byblock produced the same results.
The only workaround I found was to change the color of the objects in the block to something other than bylayer or byblock.

I have a line label style that I created for labeling bearing and distance. The Dragged State Component for display is set to "As Composed", because I want to just slide it down the line a bit, but have it remain at the same rotation as the line, and it is not allowing me to do so. I also have a label style set up for "Stacked Text" and that works fine when I move it away from its original line I labeled

View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.

What I need is to be able to remove "Trailing Zeros" from my distance values, so that if precision is set to say 0.01 and my distance value is measured as 45.5, I do not get 45.50 but 45.5.
I need this to round for:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a regular AutoCAD line in a profile view and wondered if there is a way of labeling the grade of the line. I'd think I could use and expression to calculate it. But I don't know how to automatically adjust for the vertical exaggeration without having to have a separate expression for all possible situations.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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?
I am trying to create surface elevation labels along a polyline and I am having an issue with the label anchor point. I have created a line label style that uses a reference text to produce the elevation from a specified surface, however when I insert the label the default anchor point for the label is in the center of the line segment and that is where the reference text is taking the surface elevation. I am looking for the elevation of the surface at the start of each line segment, and I do not know how I can make it stop defaulting to the center of the line segment.
Attached is an overview of what my labels look like, where the anchor point is, and the layout properties within my label style. I am using C3D 2012.
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.
Is there a way to create a macro to label a line with a particular style?
I label my feature lines with three styles: multiple - segment grade, multiple - segment start elevation & single - segment end elevation. I want to make a macro for each of these that I can put on a button. It would be nice to combine the two multiples too if that is possible.
