AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Circles Appearing At Curves On Alignment

Nov 13, 2012

I have noticed since using c3d 2013 circle "markers" appearing at the curves on my alignments. I can't find the control to change / turn off?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Remove Curves From Alignment

Apr 17, 2012

I have alignment with 2 curves at the beginning and end that I want to keep. It has a few PIs in between ke that are not supposed to have curves, but Civil 3D added them in (very short 200 ft radius curves), but I need to take all but the first and last curves out. 

I tried setting Constraint Editing - toggled OFF lock all parameter constraints.  Then I went into the data and tried to change the parameter.  Can't get the curve out.  Is there a way to convert a PI from one with a curve to one without a curve?

I can't afford to redraw this alignment - it's being referenced via Data Shortcuts to multiple drawings being used by me and my designer / already has my design profiles and existing profiles attached to it.

How to do this?  -  Delete the curves and make them PIs only? (without curves).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rearrange Alignment Tangent And Curves

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?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Add Floating Curves From The End Of Simple Straight Alignment

Oct 29, 2013

Ok I am attempting to add a floating curve from the end of a simple straight alignment. No matter what I do the curve is created from the left end of the alignment. I first created an alignment from objects. I tried reversing the alignment and it still comes from the same point. I tried creating an alignment and drawing the objects using a fixed line. Still from the same point. How do you get it to create the floating curve from the opposite end?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Linestyle For Curves Plotting As Continuous

Mar 26, 2012

I have an alignment file that is xref into multiple dwg files. For the one file, however, the curve plots as "continuous", while the tangents plot as "center". In all the other sheets it plots fine. The alignment styles are good. Looking at it on my screen it looks fine. The xref is on its own layer (not zero or some random layer). All the psltscale, msltscale and celtscales are set to 1. The ltscale is set to .5 (set to 1 doesn't change anything). What am I missing??

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Data Reference Alignment Stationing Differs From Original Alignment

May 3, 2012

I using a data reference/shortcut to properly label an alignment in paperspace. However when I reference the alignment in and apply the labels the aren't the same as the original alignment that I am referencing. Is there a setting where I am supposed to apply a new beginning station.

Also it seems as though the stationing(distance) isn't even matching up 1:1 with the original drawing. For example in the original base drawing my alignment starts at 10+00 with the next PI at 14+76.98, but the stationing on the reference alignment starts at 0+83.33 with the very same PI being labeled as 1+23.08. So the very same distance is 476.98' in the real design and the drawing it's being referenced in, but the stationing of the referenced alignment shows it as 39.75 Units.

I've attached a screen of the beginning of the alignment.

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 :: Alignment Style Vs Alignment Labels - PI Treated Differently?

Apr 6, 2013

I have a question on Alignment PI's. (Point of Inflection/Intersection)I have an alignment where some PI's have curves, others are merely hard bends.

Is there a way to automatically label the PI's even if they have an associated curve? (I'd like PI, PC and PT)Alternatively, can I only show markers at PI's without curves?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Launching Alignment Grid View / Alignment Entities

Launching alignment grid view/alignment entities,

I’m wondering if there is a way to launch alignment grid view/alignment entities (attached) without the need to first launching “alignment”? This dialogue box is quite essential in editing the values of radius, degree of curvature and deflection angle for the selected curve.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Begin Station Inherited From Another Alignment

Aug 8, 2012

Can I inherit the station from one alignment as the begin station for another alignment?

For example. Alignment 1 is 1000 ft long and starts at sta 0+00.

At sta 8+01, Alignment 2 begins and goes off in another direction.

I manually enter 8+01 for begin station Alignment 2. Life is good. Still in the design stage, and customer needs to modify Alignment 1 to avoid something. Now Alignment 2 intersects Alignment 1 at sta 8+15, but same N/E coordinates.

I manually enter 8+15 for begin station Alignment 2.

It would be better if Alignment 2 could inherit the begin station based on the new stationing from Alignment 1.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Automated Way To Convert Ellipses Into Circles?

Jul 2, 2013

I have a large amount of "ellipses" in a Civil 3D 2013 drawing that were created as "circles" in Cyclone 8.03 (the laser scanning software from Leica-Geosystems). I need to work with circles so I can label the diameter of each in my drawing. Is there a way to automatically convert these ellipses, that have the same exact minor and major axis, into circles? Other wise I will have to reapeat the work in Civil 3D using the same point cloud!

I'm trying to print the hypsometry but when I do it, the surface doesn't appear. The problem is the same with other types of elevations.

I checked the layers properties, but it doesn't seem to be the problem as all the layers are printables.

I can print the hypsometry in the model space.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Hatch Not Appearing Correct In Layout Tab?

Feb 7, 2013

I am working on creating a set of plans and have a couple of note pages that are generic and will not need to be change. I am creating a template with layers, layout tabs, styles, etc. I am trying to put these notes straight into a layout tab just simply by pasting them in there. The issue I am having is with the hatching on a couple of objects, the hatches appear correctly right off. When I save the drawing and reopen the hatches are a solid block, regen does not fix this. I can however explode the hatch and then undo the explode command and it appears correctly. Is there a way I can make the hatches appear correct everytime?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Disappearing / Re-appearing Contour Style

Sep 28, 2012

I have created a TIN surface from polyline contour data in Civil3D 2013. My file shows shows that the surface is present both in the Prospector and when I float over the surface and will preview. I assigned a style to the surface, which for my uses is displaying minors at 1' and majors at 10'. My problem is that the contours only display sometimes. That is to say, SOMETIMES I open the file and I can see the surface contours and other times it simply will not display them.

There has been NO change to the layer (on, visible and not frozen) nor to the style (not assigned as not showing or any different color) between current and the time I used the file last. Occasionally, when I restart my machine, the contours will display for a few hours worth of work, but when I return the next day, or after a hang, restart my machine again, the contours simply will not show. If I add "show triangles" in the style definition, the triangles will show every time, but not the contours.

I changed my RAM from 2- 4GB DIMMs to 2- 8GB DIMMS giving me a total of 16GB of RAM, which I did, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference in performance and the contours still don't show.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Gray Boxes Appearing On Plotted Drawings

Oct 23, 2013

I have have small gray shaded boxes showing up on drawings plotted in Civil 3D, they are never anywhere I can see in the drawing  and they never show up in the print preview. I have tried using multiple printers and still get the same thing. I think it may have something to do with viewports as they only show up inside a viewport window when plotting from paperspace and don't show up when I plot from modelspace.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface Triangles Not Appearing In Object Viewer

Mar 7, 2013

Today I opened a file that has previously worked perfectly well, only to find that when I open my surface in Object Viewer and begin to rotate it manually, the triangles making up the surface do not appear. I have the contour lines and border (what is enabled in the Edit Surface Style/Display/Model tab) although the triangles (which should be displayed as well) do not appear. Other surfaces show like they should.

Is there another option other than the Edit Surface Style/Display/Model tab and the VISUALSTYLES command?

using Civil 3D 2013.
