I have recently received several aerial images with a .iTIFF file extension. how to insert an iTIFF into a drawing and what the best way to do this. I can just delete the 'i' out of the extension and it works fine as a TIFF but the coordinate projection is off.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to change a RAW description such as EC12 +, or EC11 -, to say SWP12 +, SWP11 -
I'm not having much luck using the parameter settings. 1$
I tried Code = EC*, format=SWP1$
That didn't work... I got literally SWP1$ instead of SWP12 +
Is it a space thing? Do I have to rename all the descriptions to have a space before the parameter?
i.e. EC 12 +
I'm hoping this isn't the case and some form of wildcard can be use.

To move the + is easy, but how can I add the ,?
This type of station label is the standard by the Deutsche Bahn, so it's not that far-fetched.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been sent an AGS 3.1 file which I'm trying to import to Civil 3D using the Geotechnical module, but keep running up against an error which suggests the date format in the AGS file is incorrect. From what I can see the format should be DD/MM/YYYY, and this is correct in the file, but Geotechnics still won't recognise it.
Is there a different date format I should be using, or is there a way to force the tool to recognise the format in the file?

Having trouble with sending drawings out in dwg format with photographs on, ok with pdf's. Ihave tried different methods, copied and pasted photos, (made sure they are small file size). I have tried to attach image in x-ref manager, is there a way to bind the photos into the drawing?
I have sent drawing out but lost images, also i sent drawing out zipped up with folder with photos. Using relative path, i still cant get it to work. What is correct method to insert images into a drawing so they are bound in? is there a way.
Since 2013 is the first version to have pressure networks, do I need to explode the objects before saving to a previous version? Or is there another method? I will lose all my properties if I explode the objects I believe...
View 2 Replies View Relatedi made a survey, about 2000 points with my TSC3R6. I exported my CSV file to a PNEZD file with comma seperated. When i try ti import the file (CSV then i made a .txt), C3D tells me "no point file format match found". Then I opened the txt file, searched for any error that would not let me import my points. The only thing i have found would be the description of my points that sometimes had a space between 2 words (ex: bt balast and ht balast) so i changed it to bt-balast and ht-balast. i looked further and didnt found anything else. heres a sample of my txt file:

I am a C3D newbie using a clients template file and trying to figure out how to import our survey in PNEZD txt format. The template files I am working with are from WDOT and have many items set up including Point Styles, Label Styles, Description Key Sets, Figure Styles and Layers. I am having trouble figuring out exactly what each of these control/do what I need to create. I know that WDOT uses C3D for design and they translate survey from Cacie to C3D.
I have setup an Equipment Database and Linework Code Set that matches how we code things in the field (Begin=ST, Begin/End Curve= PC/PT, etc.). I am confused as to what exactly the Figure Prefix Database does and how it relates to the other Styles. I have put these in a network folder.
My first attempt using Import Survey Data with the latest WDOT .dwt file produces lines (survey figure) that are all Style=Standard and Layer=0. The points (Cogo Point) are all Style=P RW Circle Filled and Layer=P_MISC.
I also tried the same procedure on an earlier version (Dec. 2011) of the .dwt. This produced lines that had the correct Style and Layer. The points that were NOT shots taking along linework (such as a ground shot, manhole, sign) came in with the correct Style and Layer. What is wrong are the points (shots) that are along the lines (edge of sidewalk, storm sewer, edge of lane) have the Style=<default> (which shows as the P RW Circle Filled symbol) and Layer=P_MISC.
This is all overwhelming me. I feel that it is fairly close though, using the old template.I am not sure what would have changed between the two to produce such different outputs.

I am having a problem with bringing in points from Autocad Civil 3d 2014 into older drawing files. Is there any way to do this and the points show up? when I bring the points in as .AUF or PENZD format, they do not show up... Is there any solution for this? or would I have bring the points into a blank drawing file,then xref the aforementioned points into the drawing I need them in? I have had this problem multiple times.. I have checked the regular solutions(Point styles, point groups, layers, froze, etc...) and they still wont show up..

The attached file loads into the QTO manager, but I cannot get the "units" to behave.
Every item I assign to an line or pline gives me a count instead of a length.

How do you set an object's annotation, say a line, to display a line's angle or bearing precision to the nearest 20th second.
Kinda like this for decimals:
0.000
0.00
0.0
But for degrees minutes seconds.
Also, I will require the seconds to hide if the nearest 20th second was a 00. I also need a leading zero for minutes if the minutes was under 10 minutes.
I'm adding a reference system grid to my paper space viewport. The default text format for the military grid reference system is almost perfect, except for the figures that are superscripted (see attached figure) - which I would prefer are aligned on the same baseline as the larger text, but still at the smaller size. Is there a way to customise the text format so that the reference system remains dynamic, but I get the exact format I want?

I have been outputting surfaces from Civil 3D 2012 using the LandXML export function. Some of the XML files that are output the data is on a single line and some of the outputs are on multiple lines.
Not a major issue as they both import back into C3D ok but within my office we edit the XML file slightly inorder to get it into another software package and require the multi line format.
The only difference I can see is the size of the data used to create the surface! All drawings have the same LandXML export settings..All surfaces have been created using a combination of point groups, breaklines etc..
Is there any way to change the format of Lat/Long in a C3D point list display from degrees, minutes, seconds to decimal degrees? I have looked pretty hard, but can't find anything. The geodetic calculator only does one item at a time, I think. Any plug-ins out there? I suppose this could be on a wish list as well.
I am using R2012.and have ended up manipulating point values in Excel-not a quick way of going about it.
I am tryiny to import coordinate file like I have so many times and the Select File box keeps telling me "No point file format match found".

View 6 Replies View RelatedWe've recently upgraded a large project from Civil 3D 2012 to Civil 3D 2014 and for the most part things have migrated well.
On this project as well as others that have been migrated, I've been noticing this and similar messages re: modified in a previous version when the dref's synchronize:
"FG-STREET A was modified in a previous version of the software. Changes in the current were overwritten when the data reference was synchronized."
The steps we used for converting this project in order are:
Set Data shortcuts working folder.
Migrate Survey Database.
Open/save base drawing containing survey & EG surface.
Open/save all C3d source dwgs before opening any plan sheets.
Open/save all C3d plan sheets.
Because of the warning message I thought I'd try the "Migrating Data Shortcuts" following the instructions.
Use the stand-alone Data Shortcuts Editor to save one or more data shortcuts to a specified folder. If the shortcuts were created with a previous version of AutoCAD Civil 3D, they will be updated to the current format in this process.
When following the steps in the Data Shortcuts Editor, when I get to step 5, select the folder & choose Saveas, I see the following message that they will be saved in 2009 format?
Isn't that a downgrade? How these modified in a previous version messages?
I'm still trying to figure out if they are a benign message or if they are something I should be concerned with. 95% of the shortcuts on the project sync normally & seem to work fine other than an occasional disappearing profile in the sheet profiles.
