AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Missing Style Option In Properties Window
Apr 26, 2012
I use the Map function within Civil 3D 2012 to export municipal GIS data from shp files, for our base plans. One of the clean-up functions is to convert the text exported from GIS to an appropriate text style suitable for the project. To do this, I would select the text, use the select similar command, then update the text style in the properties window. This process has worked well when using Civil 3D 2010 and 2011, however, I have noticed in 2012 the "style" option is not available.
Not sure what I mean, have a look at the two attachments. Notice in the C3D 2012 image, there is no "style" option, while the C3D 2010 image includes the 'style" option. I submitted this bug to our reseller, who was able to replicate this error. Our reseller submitted this to Autodesk, who was also able to replicate this error. What is interesting is if I open the drawing that contains the map exported data from C3D 2012 in either 2010 or 2011 versions, the "style" option is available, just not in 2012. This leads me to believe the issue is not with the data or the export functionality of 2012, the issue is with 2012 displaying the data property. Autodesk has forwarded this issue to their developers, no indication of when or if it will be resolved for Civil 3D 2012.
My workaround for now is to use Civil 3D 2010 for the drawing cleanup functions. Fortunately I am able to have previous versions of Civil 3D installed, since I am on subscription. My advice is when upgrading, do not remove your previous versions if you are on subscription, you may need to use it one day.

I am trying to show cut and fill hatching in the profile views but the hatching doesn't show up. I've tried changing the hatching styles, the scale, the colors, etc. but it doesn't seem to be working.

We run 2012 Civil 3D. We recently loaded an application which provides tabs of mutiple open drawings at the top of the page so you can easily switch between drawings.
I typically dock my Object Properties Window on the left side of my window. Once we added the application, I can no longer access my Object Properties window. It is slightly visible within the window where the drawing tabs are. However, it is only 2 -3 lines of the window.
I cannot drag the properties window to another location.
I tried removing the application for the drawing tabs. However, then I cannot access the properties window at all. It says it opens and closes but it is hidden.
I attached a screen shot to try to show the problem. The properties window can be seen in the top left corner.

I have a datagridview with the list of all alignments in the drawing.
If I put a button and press it, can be posible open the window "properties alignment" about the selected alignment in the datagrid?.
And can open directly the tab page "Design Criteria"?
I would like change some values directly from the window of Civil 3D in this case. I don´t want re-write the database(db) with code.

Is there a surface setting / style option where contour labels (elevations) will display at some specified interval as part of the surface rather than going through and adding them as labels afterwards? Seems like a rudimentary operation, where the labeling can be so scattered and random.

How can I get the drop down menu of previously input data to come back? I was here on a previous computer so I assume its something in the part catalog or part builder?

I am trying to convert all missing PlotStyles that are missing to one that is not missing.
I am working with the Style Manager and Display Manger. We use a custom .stb and in this custome .stb we have eliminated some of the standard PlotStyle Names such as Full Saturation, well as you may imagine some of the default materials, walls etc... under Style manager reference Full Saturation, right now I am going in by hand, one by one, changing this to AsDrawn.
Is there a way I can automate this for two purposes?
1.) so I don't have to do this all by hand
2.) as we "copy" elements from older jobs we can macro the change of plotstyle and so when we get drawings from outside we again can macro the plotstyle to AsDrawn.

I have been trying to follow "Autodesk 3d Civil Help>Surfaces>Adding and Editing Surface Data" in order to construct a surface from a point cloud I have, in x,y,z format. I have been trying to creat a grid surface since my data is regular DTM data.
My first issue is that a lot of the options are greyed out when creating the surface (for example I cannot change "Render Material Style". I can still create a surface though. The second, more important issue, is that I am then told to expand the surface definiton section on the Prospector tab and click on the points icon there. This icon is simply not there for me - I have a choice of Boundaries, DEM Files or Edits.
I should point out that I am working in Autodesk Civil 3d 2006.
Is it some issue with the liscence/installation? Or am I missing something erally obvious that greys out some options and makes others dissapear completely!

Just switched to 2012 from 2010. When I try to edit the description format field in the properties window of a selected cogo point, I can't type in caps, it's all lower case. If I right click and edit the point, I can use capital letters, however. (running C3D 2012 sp4, Win7 64bit, 8GB)

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.

For the last couple weeks I've been unable to view object properties or quick properties. If I right click on an object and select quick properties, a blank window comes up:
Similarly, if I bring up a properties window and select an object, the selection field remains blank and the object property fields are not populated with information relating to the selected object:

How I can change the sequence in my propertieswindow?
I give in my parameters and wich parameter I put in first comes on top of the properties list. If I delete the parameter that is first on the list and I put it in again it joins the list at the botom.
Now I want to control the sequence of the properties window so I can have it for al blocks the same. that makes it easier to use.
Like in the picture that you can find in the attachment. I want to put elements on top of the list so I can choose The elements (with visibility) first and then I want to put in the width and height.

I have a problem with attribute values. After I insert block inside drawing and see properties window all attributes with its values are there (attributes are not set as constant). When I try to change any information from this properties window, everything looks fine but when I go to block editor and check the attribute values there I see that they has not been changed. When I try to generate/extract this values from the drawing they are still old. Is there any way how to synchronyze this information between properties window and values which are in block editor? Or did I do something wrong?

I'm not able to see the values of attributes in my Properties Palette. When I select the block, I would like to see the associated attributes show up in the "Properties" window; however for some reason they do not.
This happens with all blocks and I checked the constant. I'm thinking it's a Variable but don't know which one.

I'm having a problem with my properties window or floating palette. When I select an object, such as a "line", my properties palette refreshes itself for about 3 seconds. When I hit esc, or deselect the line, it takes another 3 seconds to refresh itself. You can even see the properties palette start at the top and go blank as it travels downward. Very slow process, I can not get anything done. IF I close my properties palette, it does not have the delay, but I can not work without it. When I reboot, it works fine for about 5-6 selections, then jams back up.

In ACLT 2008, I was able to resize the window in the layer properties manager to what was convenient for me. In ACLT 2010, I am unable to change either the size or the position of the window. The same is true of the Design center window. Is this something that is permanently changed, or is there maybe a fix coming to allow this convenience in the future? Or have I missed some system variable which controls this?

I must have hit some combination of keys which altered my interface because Autocad 2013 is acting slighly differently. I can no longer pick Dtext and change its contents directly but must go into the properties tab and change the text through the properties window. When I pick an object my layers scroll windo no longer identifies the objects layer. And when I right click an object I no longer have access to the same set of command that I used to. For example I used to be able to right click an XREF and have the command xclip available but that and other specific commands are no longer available. I am on a deadline and am not able to figure out what is causing this sudden unexpected change in the interface.

how to change the precision display in my properties window; I usually keep it open and docked, and am in the habit of changing many of the properties of a selected item there.
When I pick a drawing feature, the properties window's precision is only set to single digits (ie: highlight text, the text size in the window is displayed as "0" instead of "0.8").

I am trying to change the default label styles for AddSegmentLabel under general styles using .NET...
Dim X As Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel = CD.Settings.GetSettings(Of Autodesk.Civil.Settings.SettingsCmdAddSegmentLabel)()
X.Styles.LineLabel.Value = strChildStyleName ... says name does not exist
or
X.Styles.LineLabelStyleId.Value = oidChildStyle ... "The type of objectId is wrong"
If I manually change it to a child style and then check the values, they are the same as what I'm trying to set them to. If you use a "parent" style then these both work. Am I doing something wrong or this another limitation?
