AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Line Segment Label Anchor Point

Jan 30, 2013

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.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Pipe Label - Dragged State Anchor?

Sep 24, 2009

The labels normal anchor point is the bottom outside diameter of the pipe, but when dragged the anchor snaps back to the cl of the pipe.

The only workaround I was able to come up with is a "static" leader made up of two lines and an arrowhead block, which you can only slide up or down the pipe with the desired appearance but can't stretch.

The attached image shows the Civil 3D pipe label above and the desirable text/leader legacy version below.

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 :: Eliminating A Segment In A Lot Line

Oct 9, 2012

I have a subdivision plat that I'm working on with a curved lot line.  When I label this particular lot line, Civil 3D labels it like it's two different segments.  In other words, instead of labeling the line as a 100 foot long arc with a radius of 100 feet, it labels it as a 60 foot arc and a 40 foot arc.  I can't figure out how to combine the two segments. 

All of the lots lines were created from polyline objects, and there was no break in the original line work (nor is there any indication of a break in this location when I select it).

Illustrator :: Create Wavy Line With Consistent Wave Regardless Of Anchor Point Spacing?

Jan 10, 2013

The above image shows my problem. All have the same zig zag effect setting, but due to inconsistent anchor point spacing there is inconsistent waviness. Is there a way to make a wavy line that is not a distortion based on anchor point distances? I'd like all my wavy lines to look nice and consistent like this:
 
The only reason they're so consistent is the absolute setting has been used but these lines are all straight and have only 2 anchor points, start and finish, hence the wave is consistent. It's harder when the lines are curvy and have a different number and spacing of anchor points.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Code To Display Station Of Feature Line At Start Of Segment

Mar 13, 2012

I have a feature line, and a labels table created for it. The table has the following columns: Line or Curve #, Station, Segment Start X, Segment Start Y, Segment Start X, Bearing/Delta, Length, Radius, Grade Ahead.

what code I need for the table to display the station of the feature line at the start of the segment?

I also have an alignment with the same stationing over top of the feature line, but Im not sure how to code a reference text into the table either. I can create an end segment reference text for the plan view labels but even if I copy that code into the labels table it doesn't work.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Point Label With Coordinates?

May 4, 2012

i've got a bunch of points that need a coordinate label. my drawing is on a state plane coordinate base but i want the point labels to be on an artificial coordinate base. i basically need to start in the corner of a parking lot at 0,0 and work my way out from there with the coordinates based on that 0,0. Is this a possibility?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Point Label Style

Apr 27, 2012

I'm using AutotCAD Civil 3D 2012 in the Civil 3D workspace, trying to create a point label style to show what I need it to show. I click on a point and select it's properties. Once on the properties tab I go down to the point label style box and clicked on the down arrow. A list of options then comes up and I selected the create/edit option. A small point label style box then appears and i choose the button directly next to the drop-down list and the label style composer box pops up. In this box I go to the layout tab and then go down to the contents box. I select the browse button next to the contents to select the contents. I select the contents I want but when I apply it every point has those contents and I need just that one point to have those contents.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Point Label Overlap

Mar 21, 2012

I'm thinking that AutoCAD has no such feature, but I'll ask just to make sure.

What I am doing is mapping points which each have a simple point number label. (asbestos load buried in landfill in case you are curious) There are many points which have the same coordinates (up to 20 points sometimes). So, then I have to drag each label individually until all labels are visible.This take a ridiculous amount of time when you are talking about 1000+ points.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rotating Point Label Style?

Apr 10, 2013

Imported points and I have a label style to label tree sizes automatically,  but when there are many trees near each other labels start to overlap.  So I will typically rotate the label style 180 degree or drag the label, but I am curious if its possible to have label always stay horizontal no matter what my rotation angle is.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Corner Point Label Style

Apr 28, 2012

i have a building corner point label style that labels the corner of bldgs with the elev on top of an arrow and the full description of a bdlgc on bottom of arrow...rotated at 45 degrees....

i have 3 components...a block of an autocad leader i call an arrow that i just drew from left to rt on layer 0 and named the component arrow...then i have the elevation and the description

problem is that when i rotate label to move it out of way of obstructions it flips the elev on bottom and the desc on top!!

i have tried a number of combinations of anchor pts and changing the "flip anchor pts with text" to true/false under the general tab of the label style composer...

i cant get it!

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Move Cogo Point Label

Sep 18, 2013

I have a large number of cogo points that I have set. I would like to move, as a group, the label portion only and leave the coordinate value as is. This would be a time saver as I am seeing that I am going to have to move every point individually. I used to be able to do this in LDD along with changing the rotation. I've tried locking the points and then moving them but the values change. Not too happy with the lack of control with the leader either.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Fix Trashes Point Label Style Scaling

Jun 22, 2011

Point label styles do not scale properly in raster plots.  Raster plots have long been my fix for making wipeouts and masks behave.  Without the excellent fix raster plots have been, I'm sunk!  All of my work depends upon raster plotting to maintain consistently correct output with absolutely no wipeout or masking errors.  My point label styles all have a text height of 0.11" which is the plotted height according to the documentation.  They are exactly the right height in all page setups with non-raster plot devices.  But, when my page setup includes a raster device the text is scaled to just a speck. It should be 32 pixels high at the 288 pixels per inch I have specified but it is barely two or three pixels high both on my display and in my ploits.

The attachments show the wipeout/mask problem in 2012 DWF output and the rescaling of point labels in 2012 raster (TIFF) output.  I am in critical need of a fix that does not involve special point label styles just for raster plots.  Autodesk!?  I already have to use a special pen tables for raster plots with pens sizes scaled for each dpi resolution I use but that has been settled for many years now.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Find Insertion Point For A Surface Label

If I use this code it will give me the insertion point for a block

(setq ent (car (entsel "
Select Main Object: ")))

(setq InsPt (assoc 10 (entget Ent)))

Now if I try to use this for a surface label and try to get the insertion point

(setq ent (car (entsel "
Select Main Object: ")))

(setq oEnt (vlax-Ename->Vla-Object ent))
(vlax-dump-object oEnt)

I dont see anything that will get the insertion point.
