how do I turn off the new "stretch" vertices?
I am finding that I click to select a line, and start typing commands, only to find out they aren't registering b/c I have selected that un-needed extra vertex in the middle of every pline segment.
I have checked the Options, and cannot find how to turn those off. They were not in 2008.

I am trying to figure out how to had multiple vertices to a feature line. I'm thinking its right in front of me, but I'm just not seeing it. I have been adding vertices by "insert elevation point" manually and it is a really nice feature in that it picks up the elevation that is already attributed to the feature line, but it would be nice to speed up the process.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe Straighten method seems to always default to the first vertex of the polylne, which is great if you want to start there but what if you wanted to delete the 10th to 15th vertex? Is this even possible using PEDIT Tools (it is very possible using the WEEDFEATURES method)

I have created a dynamic block. Herein I placed stretch actions parameter set to strecht parts including anotative text.
Now the block seems to work fine.
- When I am in modelspace and I change the annotation scale the text is changed correct
- When I am in modelspace and I change the stretch value of the dynamic block everything goes fine.
But when I am in modelspace and I change the stretch value in one of the annotiaton scales and then switch to another scale my text is changed annotativly (this is what I want) but the stretch value is set back to default (which should be at the changed value).
I have a drawing with 3D polylines that will be used to build a surface but many of them cross each other.
I would like to extract the vertices of these polylines and use this information to build the surface but can't figure out an easy way to do this.
I have tried the Points at Vertices Automatic which is ok but as there are 300 or so 3D polylines this will get very tedious very quickly - is there a better/quicker way to do this?

I would like to get original vertices(vertex) from breakline.
With SurfaceBreakline.Vertices property I can get a ObjectId collection of them but generally will contain more vertex that original vertex because it depend of "weeding factor" values and "suplementing factor" values.
How can I get only original vertex from breakline?Perhaps, API should have other property to get only original vertex from breakline.
In the command GRADING>EDIT FEATURE LINE GRADING>INSERT ELEVATION POINT
I can specify the Increment value which is what I want but this only allows me to select one line. How can I select multiple lines and specify an increment value?
I am manually editing my section geometry by moving the grips and am wanting to remove some of the additional vertices that I don't need in a certain area. How to delete extra points? I can't seem to find a way to do this either graphically or in the Section Editor. I am using C3D 2010.

If so it's another one for my wish list.

Is there a way to display vertices and elevation points of featurelines so I can see where to apply labels to individual segments? Without the markers it is a trial and error process of placing labels, then picking the line to activate the grips to see if I missed any segments.
I know I could create a label style that labels all the vertices but that just adds clutter. I'd really like to see some sort of marker if possible.

I know there are different ways to do this. Would like to know multiple options so I can see which might be quickest for me.
I have points with elevations and 2D plines at elevation zero drawn between them.
I would like 3D plines instead. This is the easiest way for me to transfer them to another drawing where I will make surfaces with them. I don't want to have to transfer the points over.
I can redraw the plines as 3D plines but this is time consuming and seems unecessary.
I don't want to have to convert them to Feature Lines either. I prefer they be 3D polylines.
Is there a simple command for this? I already have a surface containing the points and lines as surface breaklines.
Is there a project objects to surface command that will make these 2D plines at elev 0 into 3D plines while assigning elevations (and vertices) only at the current vertices?
What about a simple series of commands to convert the 2D plines to 3D plines, then force the 3D pline to take on the elevations of the points at its vertices? (I think this would be my preference, but don't know any of these commands or where to find them.)
I am working on placing boring logs in a profile. The logs come in at a 1:1 scale but the profile must be exaggerated vertically. Is there anyway to stretch/scale an object in one direction.
I currently just have plines, hatches, and text but can repaste it as a block if that will make it easier.

I'm trying to create a surface using feature lines. I have an alignment and profile that I have created a dynamic feature line. However, on a horizontal curve, it apparently creates a vertex at the start and beginning of the curve, and nothing on the curve, so it triangulates between those two points and that's it.
Do I need to play with spiral tessellation (0.25), mid-ordinate distance (0.1) to get some points along the curve?
I need to create points with surface elevations along sample lines. The points need to represent the verticies one would see in the section editor. I've attached an image of my section editor for one of my sample lines. I need to create points that represent these 24 verticies along this sample line and do so for the rest of my sample lines as well. Is there an automated process to create these points?

It seems other design packages can do it so I hope C3D can as well, however I can not find anything detailing if it can be done or how. I attach and example so you can see what I mean. Arrows show sections of differing flow/pipe size & grage for each pipe.

I save the files with it off, but when I reopen, it's still on. A real pain in the butt when plotting since if I batch plot, all of my contours are off, which eliminates using batch plot entirely. Luckily, I only have 5 figures at the moment, but once we get to design phase I will have many more and require batch plotting.
