AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Prevent 3D Faces Objects When Exploding An Alignment Tangent Label

Nov 8, 2013

I received a drawing where I have to add Bearings to an alignment and Right-of-Way lines. I have a Line Label Style that it works for that purpose. These new bearings are "Alignment Tangent Labels" and we need them to be "MTexts"

Select & explode once, and you get "Block Reference"

Select & explode again, and you get "MText"

Once that is done, unfortunatly, I get "3D Faces" objects in the background. Invisible on the drawing, but visible on paper once we plot them. The only way to remove them is by selecting around the new MText until I click on one, then, right-click, Select simnilar, Delete!

Is there any way to prevent that to speed up the process???

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Alignment Label Style Set After Alignment Has Been Created?

Jul 18, 2013

Using Civil 3d2012, Is it possible to change the alignment label style set after the alignment has been created?  For example, for an alignment that was created with alignment label set X - change the label set to alignment label set Y?  It seems like this should be pretty easy, I must be missing something obvious.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rearrange Alignment Tangent And Curves

May 15, 2013

I created a horizontal alignment from objects and upon importing it c3d seems to have taken liberty to arrange the lines in order it sees fit. Is there a way to rearrange the alignment tangent and curves and change their direction?

I have to put out record drawings that contain C3D objects; Surfaces, Contour labels, Points and Point tables.

Many drawing Xrefs are nested.  I tried the Civil batch converter with xref binding turned off and objects set to explode, and I get error messages, and the task is never completed.  Is there a work around procedure to preserve the C3D information in each drawing?  Can points be exploded and retain their apperance?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Wipeout In Alignment PI Label

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment And Elevation Label Combination

May 23, 2013

I need a label style that not only labels the major stationing of an alignment, but also displays the corridor surface elevation beneath it.

                                              10+000

                                                   |

                                              22.10m

Something similar to above.

I can add reference text for surface elevation to the alignment label, but all I get is the ???, no surface value.

What am I missing?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Elevation In Alignment Label

I need to know how to display a proposed profile elevation in the major station alignment label, I mean, for example, I want to read in the label "0+000, 494.444". I've already edited my major station label style adding a (profile type) Reference text, and it only displays "?". I suppose I need to associate it with the correct profile, but I've not figured out how to. I show you how the label looks in the attached image.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Turn Off End Alignment Label In Plan?

Jun 27, 2012

I am working in C3D 2011. The end station on my alignment is 163+02. The last major station label is 163+00. The label text overlap. I want to turn off the end label of 163+02. The end station is not checked in my Alignment Style or in the Geometry Points style. I am assuming there is a command in the Settings/Alignment/Commands that is overriding the changes I have made in individual styles. I have found some post concerning this from 2004 but they do not seem to be applicable in 2011.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Station Offset Label

May 19, 2012

I am trying for last hour but cannot make this work. I have attached screen shot of a dynamic label with some text. The problem is as you add degree symbols and inch (") symbols and paratheses to the text, the leader starts to intersect the station value. I want to move the leader a little below the sta. value so the station vallue is readable. When I move the leader the text moves with it. I tried everything in edit label text option but cannot seem to fix it.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile / Alignment Label Expression

Nov 26, 2012

Here is my expression:

IF((FMOD({Raw Station}+5,15))!=0,-1,({Profile Elevation}-100*FLOOR({Profile Elevation}/100)))

I have also tried it without a pair of brackets:

IF((FMOD({Raw Station}+5,15))!=0,-1,{Profile Elevation}-100*FLOOR({Profile Elevation}/100))

and I have tried it using {Station Value} instead of {Raw Station}

Here's what it's meant to do (because it's a long one):

If the station value + 5 is not divisible by 15, return -1
If the station value + 5 is divisible by 15, return the profile elevation, 
if the profile elevation is in the 100 range, subtract 100
if the profile elevation is in the 200 range, subtract 200...etc 

Here is my conundrum: If I use the expression in a profile label, it works fine.  But if I use it in an alignment label as reference text, it returns -1 for every value.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Add Block Or Symbol To Alignment Label?

Jul 31, 2012

This is what I'm trying to achieve, except with a Civil3D label.I want to add the circle with the typical detail callout to an alignment label.  I can format the text just fine, but can't figure out any way to add a symbol to a label.  For example, I was thinking I would create a "water meter" style with the correct number for water meters, so there would be a block or something attached to the label.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Set Up Alignment Station Offset Label

Oct 7, 2013

I would like to set up an alignment station offset label that when in the dragged state, offsets the arrowhead from the actual insertion point on the alignment in any direction and distance I specify. I am preparing some plans for a water line. I am working at a 1"=200' scale so all of the blocks representing fittings are scaled up so they are legible.

In some instances, the fittings are right next to each other. If I place an alignment station offset label at the actual station and drag it away from the alignment, the arrowhead is pointing to the station but not the fitting. Is there a way to offset the arrowhead of a C3D label in dragged state other than in the direction of the leader?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Label With Reference Text And Expressions

Oct 30, 2012

I'm trying to create an alignment label to display profile elevations at regular stations.  Two questions:

1.  I use an expression to set the text height.  When I add a regular text component in the label this works fine, but when I add reference text I can't seem to use the expression as text height.
2. I want to use an expression to 'Truncate' the elevation, so that 178.35m displays as 78.35.  I can't find a way to create an expression to do this (within the Alignment station labels).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Adding Dynamic Blocks To Alignment Label

May 14, 2013

I am using AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013. I am thinking that this may not be possible at this point but I am still going to try.  I have an alignment label style for station and offset.  I also have created a dynamic block for the border of this label to put around that label.  This call out border is not a typical single width border so the borders within the alignment style do not match and cannot be used for our designs. I have attached an image of the border around the label style for a random alignment.  So far the dynamic block has been a great fix for the border so that we dont spend a lot of time drawing in these borders for each label, but I was trying to add this dynamic block to the label style so that it would act as the border.  

So far I have tried adding the block as a component in the layout tab of the label style but it appears where I anchor it and does not access any of the dynamic attributes to make the callout box larger in reference to the text.  I know I can insert it so that in general it will be surrounding the Station, Offset, and Alignment contents, however, we frequently add additional text to our labels to callout pipe bends and other items so the box is not typically the same size. 

How I might be able to do this or if it is not possible at this time?
