AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Do Snap With Surface On Orbit View?

May 6, 2013

I have my surface, I'm seeing it in orbit view mode . (also it doesn't work on 2D...) 

I'd like to create a 3d Poly using some points on the triangles of my surface.... 

I'd need a transparent Inquiry tool , to use when I create points or  3dpols

I think it is basic.... 

I know _AeccFeatureElevsFromSurf

but i'm talking about a 3d Snap....

Civil 3D (2013) how much you have to improve....

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Opening Drawing In 2013 And Drawing View Changes?

Nov 28, 2012

Recently upgraded to Civil 3D 2013 and drawings opened up fine.  Now today any drawing that opens shows the plan view as last saved but then after loading takes the drawing and shifts it into a 3d view similar to a crossection.  Is there a setting somewhere that has been changed?  I noticed after a windows 7 update was preformed.

AutoCad 2D :: Drawing Polyline To Have Tooltip Box Show Cumulative Length Of Polyline

Nov 6, 2013

Is there a way, when you are drawing a polyline, to have the tooltip box show the cumulative length of the polyline, rather than the length of the current segment being drawn?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 3D Orbit Causes Fatal Error

Nov 15, 2013

Sometimes 3D orbit works perfect, and sometimes it causes a fatal error before you even get started with it. I originally thought it was just large 3D objects causing it, but now I think it's just a 2014 issue...because I've had simple 3d surfaces (3d polyline with a surface) that have caused it to crash, yet have other larger surfaces that orbit without issue. I'm mostly using it to compare 3D polylines to surfaces, usually on as built alignments that we're working on.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 3D Orbit For Surface-2d Banding Too Slow

Apr 19, 2013

I have a surface volume analysis with 2D banding..Regardeless of it is a +- surface and it is not at the right height location, I want to see it in 3D. uffffff, 30 seconds waiting to acad ....

I have a good pc (wirth a superb nvidia) (I have no problems with any other software or 3D actions)

First , I have to wait almost 30 seconds before have the 3D mouse movements avalaible. 
Second, every mouse move ( to change the point or view, etc ) means 3 seconds of delay.

 The model is little , 400 x 600 meters. (It is an example from mastering c3d) .

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rotating View Of A Drawing

Oct 10, 2012

My company has just upgraded from stone age AutoCAD to Civil3d 2013 and I've been tasked with figuring out the program.

What I am trying to do is realign my drawing so a line I drew is horizontal to the page. For example, I have a line at a 45 degree angle and I want to rotate my viewport so that line is now at a 0 degree angle. Is there a simple way to do this?

A follow up: I have my point labels set to be a 45 degree angle, will they be at a 45 degree angle when I realign the drawing or will they "rotate" along with the drawing?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Drawing Initial View

Jun 5, 2012

When opening a drawing, since I've installed 2013, I don't have an initial view or preview of the drawings I'm selecting.  In the open box, the "Initial View" or "Select initial view is unchecked and won't let me put a check mark in so I can review the drawing before opening.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Align Polyline Onto Another Polyline

Mar 22, 2012

Any way I can align a new polyline to a reference polyline (orig polyline).

The 2 polys will be generally the same length, however, the number of vertices will differ.

Also I need to mantain the same distance between the vertices on the new poly and the new and reference poly won't follow the same direction.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Drawing Template For Multiple Section View Production

Feb 21, 2012

How can I create a dwt file for the production of multiple section views sheets in A3 format and 1/200  ?

Civil 3D Section .dwt (Template/plan production) has only layouts for A0 and A1 plan and scales 1/500 - 1/1000 and 1/5000. I tried to change the format to A3 and scale to 1/200 of one of those layouts in the set up manager but didn't get a good result while producing section sheets.

After upgrading to Inventor 2014 we notice that the graphics do not work properly, and that the overall performance in drawings and modelling bad compared to 2013. Then we installed SP1 and now drawing views are disappearing, however when we select "shaded" view the view reappears and works perfectly..

Any workaround regarding disappearing views?

AutoCAD Inventor :: View Label In Base View / Drawing?

Nov 25, 2008

Each time when I place a part in base view, have to follow few steps; go through view label, format Text, than choose type option - [Properties-Model] and its property - [Part Number], than placing dimensions. it takes long time and very repetitive, especially, when placing a hundreds of parts and I was wondering if there is an option, to set up view label; [Properties - Model ]& [Part number], as a DEFAULT. So, each time placing a part, in base view it will come up with correct label. Also, overall dimensions, can it be retrieve using parameters of the part?

AutoCad 2D :: Snap Not Working After Drawing Polyline

Jul 17, 2012

After I drawn a Polyline or rectangle, I wasn't able to Snap the Object. So measuring was a hard thing to do.I found a solution to this bug: Disable the Linetype Generation. After that snapping will work again.

This problem occurred out of nowhere. It always worked without changing the linetype generation.

AutoCad 2D :: Drawing Polyline - Cursor Snapping / Lagging

Apr 5, 2011

When I go to draw a polyline, it feels like the snap mode is on and it takes forever to select my end point. It's almost as if it is lagging behind. I did not see this problem until I upgraded to 2012 last week. Going back to 2011, it seems to be doing the same thing.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Command For Drawing A Polyline Through Multiple Points

This is something I should know as a long time CAD user. I have line of points, ~200 on the screen and I want to draw a polyline through them without selecting each point. I know there was a command to select the first point and the last and ACAD would draw the line between. I am using AutoCAD 2010.

AutoCad :: Reduce File Size Using Polyline Instead Of Line While Drawing?

Apr 26, 2011

I've heard that you can reduce file size using polyline instead of line while drawing (or vice versa... don't remember) is it true and what exactly should be used. I think, why we would need the line tool at all if polyline more convenient.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Mark Items In Alignment View To Display In Profile View?

Dec 20, 2012

I was wondering if after drawing an alignment, creating a profile, and profile view, is there a way I can mark items along the alignment so they could show up in the profile view.  I am laying out a pipeline and want to have the profile display a marker for items such as tees, elbows, reducers and other items.  The marker I would like to use will be something like the vertical style grade break markers.

Also on a side note, as each of these items will have a different name, is there a way that I can add these markers and then have each one with a unique name?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile View Empty Or Missing - Cave-in - Section View

Nov 28, 2012

1. I had trouble with profile view of the alignment line shown. What step am i missing? Are there things that is turned off?

2. How can I best come up with the right volume to fill.  

3. Do I need to learn the grading tools? or could i get buy with a section profile from the alignment. ( it is not even an alignment yet) 

4. How to I render a rock fill in this cave-in.  

The attached aerial image , has survey or cogo points  that are imported to surface, to become surface points. . So I wanted to create a surface profile  below  and an outline of  fill  above it.  Iideally the side profile would look like a trapezoid, where the base is the surface proile and top would be the design embankment. 

But the reason , a surveying crew went down and took shots at the shoreline and a couple shots around the cave-in walls (higher elevation on the cave-in wall cannot be surveyed, although I coud have used a laser , did not)  is so that a more accurate volume of the cave in can be obtained. I tried to label how far the road edge is from edge of the cave-in . Norice the higher elevations are the top edge around the cave in area. 

The ouline for the embankment will be a mild slope then breaks to a more steep slope. like 4 :1 , then 1.5:1

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2013 / Changing TOP View To TOP-Front View For 2 Overlapped Points

Sep 23, 2013

I created 8 points (4 locations with 2 depths in each location) in the DWG of my AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 project. I grouped these 8 points into 2 Point Groups: Point Group 1-high depth has Points #1, #3, #5, #7, and Point Group 2-low depth has #2, #4, #6, #8. I changed the 2D Wireframe to 3D Wireframe and on TOP view I saw Point Group 1 is on the top of Point Group 2 (because the 2 Point Groups have the same values of X- and Y-coordinates with different Z(elevation) value - see the first attached file. How can I change the TOP view to the TOP-FRONT view by using some Command to get this fixed TOP-Front view thar has the good separation of the 2 depths as shown in the second attached file?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Choose Right Templates / View Ports / View Frames

Aug 26, 2013

I have been creating directly the DWG of AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 for a couple of months.I created a project for the 8 points (4 locations with 2 depths in each location - i. e. same XY-coordinates, but different Z) And I just cannot separate the  2 "depth" points of the "same XY-coordinates" location in the 3D Wireframe by using the 3D Rotation Cube. I wonder I should start the C3D 2013 with choosing the right Template, configuring proper Viewports and creating suitable View Frames. I don't know what Template is right for my project of the 2 "depth" points of the same location in the 3D Wireframe of C3D 2013 - see the attached file.  what Template (.dwt) is right for my project, how to cofigure 2 or 3 Viewports, and create the View Frames.
