AutoCAD Civil 3D :: R / W Lines In Sections Not Displaying?
Jan 25, 2013
I have R/W and Utility lines that I am trying to display in my cross-sections. I add them as Profile Grade Points to the Sample Lines. This works well in 4 out of 5 of my corridor drawings, however, 1 of the files does not display these lines in the cross-sections. I already checked turned-off layers and that's not it. When I check the individual Section View Properties, these alignments (& corresponding profiles) show up in the list, just not on the actual cross-section.

I have a corridor with 2 intersections. It is more or less like a main road with an off-ramp and an on-ramp, both on the same side, with a big triangle shape island in between them. It involves an existing road widening and a connection with another existing road. Since it is a real scenario, the intersections aren't perfect 90 degrees nor the offsets are constant.
Create Western intersection and change offset and curb return targets to design aligments.Create Eastern intersection and change offset and curb return targets to design alignments.Model the corridor as per design requirements.Due to design constraints, I ended up removing both intersections. I didn't delete all the offset and curb return alignments although they're not targeted on any region. Deleting this alignments seems to make C3D crash. the actual intersection definition hasn't been removed, as I read on other threads. I kept on getting a couple of error messages on Panorama Event Viewer every time I rebuild the corridor.
So, the problem comes when I try to output the cross sections from this nice looking corridor. They all look fine until they reach the intersection area. From the intersection onwards, the corridor is not displayed on any cross section. Even way passed the western intersection.
Why the corridor doesn't display on the cross sections passed the deleted intersections?I have a bad feeling that removing the intersection wasn't a good idea in the first place but it's too late now.

Running version 2012 of Civil 3d
We have an urban divided highway resurface and widen project. We have an eastboiund and westbound corridor we would like to get to display on our single set of cross sections
We originally set up our corridor to do the widening and ditches portion and then went on to do the work to set up the model to do the resurfacing. When we did the sections for the ditches only they displayed fine. Now that we have the resurfacing incorporated into it the ditches no longer display.
we have reviewed the targets of our assemblies, we have reconstructed the cross sections, to no avai. The software is not doing us any good right now. Need to get smarter

I have added intermediate sample lines in my corridor. These sections appear in the section editor and I can make changes to the data. The changes show correctly in the section editor and section view, however, when I plot the cross sections some of these added stations do not show the overrides. They are showing the original assembly group parameters. How do I get all the cross sections to reflect the edited data from the section editor?

I have created a road for a pit mine (which is unlike roads I have designed in the past). The road switched back towards itself and I need to daylight the cut slopes to show the limits of the mine/road cut. However, my cut/fill lines are not showing up in my cross-sections, but the plan view is showing the limits of excavation.
I assume this is because my limits are intersecting, from each of the roads, the upper and the lower. How can I get around this, or why are my cross-section lines not showing?

What is the easiest way to correct contour lines when they don't display correct? Adding points, deleting points, switching edges...
See everything circled in orange on attached pdf.

I'm having a random issue with the daylight ties lopes not tieing to the EG surface at all stations in the Corridor Section Editor. Some stations daylight fine. In plan view the daylight lines vary left & right as expected but don't display at all in Section Editor.
Some background info:2012 Civil 3D SP1 / 64 bit / WIN7Simple corridor used1 alignmentSame fg profileSame drefd EG surface (set all targets for daylight LT/RT)Only one assembly applied to entire corridor Attached are 2 captions of the issue I'm having which each have a cut & fill occurrence as well as a caption of the entire align. & corridor. I did try deleting corridor & recreating and even recreated a simpler assembly and still have the daylight issue in same areas of corridor.

This is happening on both 2012 and 2014, the workflow was what I followed offline to try and replicate an issue on a live project: Start a new partDraw a rectangle 10m x 10m fully constrainedExtrude by 10mSaveStart a new .dwg format drawing (though same results if using out of the box .idw)Place a top base view of the partSection the part anyway or direction in such a way not to infer any constraintsSection properties set to include slice and slice the whole partPlace the sectionEdit the sketch of the section lineApply a "fix" constraint to the line itselfFinish the sketch I then get an error saying the sketch does not contain a valid section line and the section disappears
he section line sketchRemove the fix constraint from the lineFinish sketch My section then reappears
Edit the section line sketchUse a "fix" constraint on each end of the lineFinish the sketch
My section remains. We're experiencing a lot of problems of section lines and therefore sections disappearing even though we're not directly applying fix constraints, I was wandering if Inventor applies a fix constraint should geometry that a section line is constrained to disappears.

I have a drawing of an assembly and have a sectioned view so as to see the internals. The assembly is very long so I've used 3 breaks to shorten it to fit the page. What I'm wanting to do is create a sketch and project the geometries of several parts so I can fill them in with color. The problem I'm having is when I click the lines I want projected, the lines don't form over the part but form where I assume they would be if there were no breaks on the view. I do this all the time and it works fine, but it's usually with only 1 break. I'm thinking it's the 3 breaks that are causing the problem.

It shows the old position of lines after a zoom, or rotate or move, etc. And it shows half of my dimension values.
Also I seem to have some ghost projections of assembly parts when I do the assembly tutorials.
Like holes and wire frames on strange places on my screen.
I have to zoom in and out randomly and wish for it to go away at some point..

I am trying to work on a previous file in my office, and when it opens on mycomputer, it does not display as it should.
In general, the purpose of the project is to reinstate the side slopes of a road abutting a river. Cut & fill sections have been generated on 20m station increments along the road corridor/surfaces in order to calulate cut and fill as well as to reference the design to flood levels.
When I open the file, all of these sections (and there are alot) have relocated themselves to various locations in model space, none of which are aligned with the viewports that are being used for printing.
Could it be software and/or hardware incompatibility with the computer they were originally created on? (I believe it was created with C3D 2010, or C3D 2011 - I am currently running 2012)

I have sevreal corridors with various spurs. The contractor wants the cut/fill volume in sections along the corridors, not one big cut/fill calc. Is there a way to do this in C3D? I have got the volume table with the chainages on, but he does not want a cumulitive figure for the whole corridor.

We have created sections from our corridor. We see FG and EG, we can use bands for EG from surface. How do we get the FG band to show the elevations for FG? The only option we have is the EG surface. We have tried to create a surface form the corridor in the corridor properties but that surface still doesn't show up in the surface list in the bands. I would have thought this info would be dynamic and come directly from the corridor would it not?

I am working on a project for a park in which they are looking for a new access road and a parking lot. I created the road and sections for it, now im looking to get material cut/fill from the sections. I am having a tough time getting them to work. The only thing I can get to work is if i created a volume surface comparing my eg to my fg surface. That will give me a cut and fill material amount for my new road
What i am trying to get is the volume report for each sections, so i can get the cut/fill for each section. I have followed the tutorials and tried everything, but nothing seems to work. I created a surface from my corridor, and for some reason when i go to edit my materials, i cant add my proposed surface from my corridor to make the comparison from, and i think thats my problem. Everytime i go to create my volume report, i get all 0's.

When editing the Cross Section Styles the Horizontal Axis changes do not take affect. Vertical will work as entered.
See attached image.
I am changing under the Horizontal Axes tab, on the Section View Styles Menu.

Every now and then I open a model and the sections/profiles all solid white 'hatch' within the bands.
I have closed down and regenerated in the hope it has something to do with re-freshing the model, but no luck.

I am trying to set up portrait cross sections. I can get my views to create a grid and such that look correct, however when putting them on sheets, it rotate the border, but also the modelspace. Are there certain settings in the sheet creation or the dwt file I need to review to do portrait sections?

I have created a drawing called xsec. I xrefed the corridor drawing into it and data shortcut the alignments in as well. I created sample lines and cut my cross sections in the drawing. Everything at this point looks fine.
The problem happens when I create a new drawing and xref the xsec into it. In this new drawing only the right side of my cross sections is showing up. I want to use this drawing for my sheet set rather than have a bunch of tabs in the xsec drawing.

How do i get templates which I have created, to show on the sections, when the sample lines were not drawn perpendicular to the alignment.
I am getting the template to show only at those sections which are perpendicular to the alignment.

I am using C3D 2012 and the feature "Project Objects into Multi. Section Views". The question I have is when I project a 3D tree block into the section it appears in the x-section in plan view only. How can I get the tree block to appear in the section in elevation view.

I am trying to produce some longsections from a DWG Format Drawing i downloaded from a mapping website (promap) at the moment im going through the process of using a 3d polyline, snapping it to every contour i need, then viewing it from the side and drawing a longsection table around it (Pretty amatuer im sure) How is it possible to produce a longsection automatically using Civil 3D/AutoCAD (The contour map is made up of 3D Poly lines).

I have several hundred cross sections for a surface that I need to label the major section breaks. Civil 3D gives the option of weeding based on distance, but I want to label only the major grade breaks (i.e. more than 1%). Is this possible, or is the only option manually labeling the section?
