I need to snap to some feature lines in my corridor, i.e. Back_Curb, Flowline_Gutter, etc, and I have the drawing containing the corridor I need to snap to as an XREF. I can snap to other objects in the XREF, but not the Corridor Feature Lines themselves. Apparently, after some digging, Autocadd hasn't come up with a solution for this problem, and many others have the same issue. I run C3D 2012, updated.

I created a simple corridor for a road widening. I want to plot some drawings but I do not want the frequency lines to plot. I have frozen the layers containing these lines. I have also set the layers to not plot in the layer properties manager. The frequency lines still plot. I've obviously missed something. What do I need to do to stop the frequency lines from plotting?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue where I have set through my codes that i do not want to view the frequecy lines in my corridor. It is displaying right but when i go to print all the frequency lines print. the attached images show my screen of what i am looking at and the other is a pdf of what prints.

I forgot to mention that the triangles and the cross section look as expected. trouble is I want the crown profile

I have a road corridor with feature lines connecting the road edges (cyan), ditchline (dark green), daylight_cut (yellow), daylight_fill (green) and daylight (white). At certain random locations along this corridor I am getting feature lines which span from one station to another, ignoring all of the corridor sections in between. The image below shows a daylight_fill line spanning over 60m, even though there is a daylight line through this region.
In this area a ditch line and a daylight_cut start at 4+110, skip over the next cut section at 4+120 and jump over a hundred meters to the next piece of ditch at 4+280..This corridor builds clean - no error messages reported.
Is this the only way to extract feature lines from a corridor i.e. selecting each one - it gets a bit tedious.
Is there any method to select a corridor and extract all the feature lines that are set to display?? I think third party software (Sincpac?) can do this but this is not an option for me and I am not well versed enough in .NET to write something to achieve this myself.
No feature lines in offset corridor

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using the default styles that came with C3D 2011. How can I change the colors of the corridor "frequency" lines. The lines I am referring to are those that are from the last sub assembly to the daylight line. This is prior to making any section views or surfaces. The colors have to be determined somewhere within the corridor styles I think, but I can't find where.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy corridor Feature Lines for Daylight Jump across in different areas (see attached PDF)
when I look at it in 3d it looks ok but the plan view the jumped lines show up.
How do i get the feature lines in my corridor to change their style based on the code set style selected?Whats the point of defining featureline styles in the code set style if they don't change in the corridor? They only get used when you first create the corridor?
Is there something I am missing or is this the intended workflow?
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.
I have x'ref a dwg. file in my current drawing. And when i print preview with the correct ctb style... The x'ref lines are not showing up?
I am having troubles showing the green, cyan and yellow color. when i print preview it doesnt show nothing. The true color is on RGB.
I make parcels in a base dwg and make separate layers for each parcel and labels moving them off the default layer zero.
i xref the base and then try freezing all the parcel layers and the go away but i am left with a copy of the parcel lines on xref layer zero with no control over it.
Why do our feature lines all come in as the color white when xreffed into a drawing? Feature lines show up just fine in our topo drawing, so then we xref it into our design drawing and they all show as if the color is white when is is not in the layer properties. All other items (symbols, points, and lines) come in as the color they were drawn in the topo drawing.

When using object snap and you are drawing with a busy survey xref in the background, the mouse cursor really hunts around a lot on the contour lines and stuff instead of on what I am drawing. But, I would like to see the contour lines as I go, rather than hide the layer.
I have created a surface from a corridor. I set the boundary of the surface to the daylight of the corridor. In some areas of the corridor the surface does not triangulate see attached.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCopy a corridor successfully? I'd like to try this just a little worried about the explosion of evil this may cause to my Civil 3D session.
Even all the properties of the corridor setup from one to another would be useful. I'm building one corridor and an 2nd one that matches everything except I need to replace my Assembly with one meant for stripping.
My corridor surface is not matching my corridor top links. see attachments. this is affecting my volumes!
The section-plan(surface red).png is showing the section editor and the plan view. the red highlighted line in section is the corridor surface and as you can see in plan view the surface is incorrect and wiggly.
The pdf is all my sections with the red linework being the corridor surface.

I get inconsistent results when I try to use the object snap to a point such as an intersection in an xref. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. Even the "nearest" doesn't seem to recognize the xref consistently. Is there a way to insure that the point is recognized?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have got some levels for games I'm working on and a lot of the items have to seal off perfectly, etc etc.
I often cannot snap to any item in an XRef Scene under some circumstances. I think that these are scenes that are failing because some are referencing each other and access stops for some reason...
In the examples:
Scene 1: Referencing Scenes 2 & 3
Scene 2: Referencing Scenes 1 & 3
Scene 3: Referencing Scenes 1 & 2
When editing Scene 2, I am able to snap to Scene 3, but not Scene 1. I don't know if it's something about a reference being an overlay (which all are) and the ordering it loads... I know that in the XRef Scene dialog it lists them (in example above) as Scene 3 above Scene 1 ... but I have not experimented with removing one and inputting them in another order... since it seems that any time I delete a scene from the list in an XRef scene dialog, Max crashes.

Sometimes I can snap to leader lines, sometimes ACAD will not let me. Right now I can only snap to endpoints of leaders, nothing else.
Even if I type mid or int it will only snap to the endpoint.

Lines snap at an offset distance (0.0000274 m e.g.) from the actual point. What change of settings can resolve it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a drawing with one viewport. In model space I have attached a jpg. If I draw a line over the xref in model space, it looks fine. When I switch to paper space, the line does not show, but if I plot to a pdf, it does. If I draw on paperspace, above the viewport, the line does not show.
The jpg is black lines on a white background. If I draw a line across it in model space, it shows up as the correct color (in this case it's red) but when I switch to paperspace it turns white and is invisible over the image.
I tried to change the display order, but no win. I checked the properties of the line and the xref itself and it all looks good. Everything is set "by layer".
I am working on a project with multiple levels, and multiple xrefs. Problem I m having is that I keep getting these lines, or what looks like possibly a footprint of something? So I go into the xref to turn the layer off, but the lines are nowhere to be found in the xref drawing!? I have been through all the basics like turning all the layers on and off etc... I will attach an image showing the lines.

I've developed several familes with modeled objects and symbolic lines.
When loaded into a project, I cannot snap to the symbolic lines. I have run into this problem before but never took the time to solve it.
Or can symolic lines not be used to snap to?
