AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Reduce Marker And Label Sizes
Sep 9, 2013
On the Marker Tab of my point style, I set the Marker Size to 0.05".
Then on the Summary Tab, under the Marker Node, the Point Marker Size shows 0.004". If I change that to 0.05, like I have it on the Marker Tab, the point marker becomes huge. Why aren't these two settings the same?
Another question. When I reduce the Marker and Label sizes, the label doesn't "suck in" to the marker. How can I bring the label closer to the marker without dragging it?

I am trying to change the sizes of markers individually. When I change the marker of one, it changes for all of them. I think this has to do with the point groups. I am able to add all points to a new group but I cant specify which markers i want in that group.

Essentially, what I am looking for is the easiest way to label control lines and right-of-way lines in section view. In the past, I have used profile grade lines to do this - with a customized Marker Style for each alignment. On projects with 40+ alignments, this leads to a lot of blocks and marker styles to wade through. What I'd like to know - Is there a way to display a point name (read from a MarkedPoint) in section view using marker labels? Here's how I see it working (theoretically):
Define the following two point codes for use in my Code Set Styles: ALGN and ROW. Each would be assigned a Marker Label Style (let's call them A & R) in the Code Set. I'd like this label to display the point name in section view. For example, I'd like to insert a marked point on the centre line; Point Code = ALGN, Point Name = L100. However it doesn't seem that the Marker Label can read the "Point Name" field. Am I missing something really simple, or is this just not doable?

I am using autocad civil 3d viewport. I am creating view frame. Even I try to edit my label location through viewport double click edit. It will reduce label size 25.4 times.

I'm having a problem with enlarging and/or reducing sizes of objects. When I set the height or width to something, the object usually becomes much smaller. If I wanted to blow up something (anything) from 8" to 20", it would become about 3". I would have to put in the 20" again and then it might grow to the correct size.

The label associated to a grading point when is moved when is moved changes its size automatically and a leader appears. After this happen no control over the grading point and its associate label. refer to the image below.

C3D 2013. We have profile line labels, some of which get manually edited (for example, change the "<[Tangent grade(FP|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|SD|OF)]>" to a static number such as 0.29%).
However, if you CTRL+Click and select one of these labels and change the style of that one label, then the manual edits are lost and the label reverts back to the default string.
Is there any way to turn this behavior off?

Is there a way to "Edit Label Text" in a Parcel area label? Similar to the way you can edit it in other styles.

I'm using Civil 3D 2012 and I'm having a hard time to turn off a maker that I didn't recognize in 2011. While having all my Osnap tools turned off, I will make a Fillet between 2 polylines, but an automatic yellow marker keeps poping up on the screen (See PDF attachement).
Is there anyway to turn the yellow marker off?

I'm trying to label my Profile label stations as raw stations, 20~20 meters, and I'm not being able to adapt the format to STATION 0, STATION 2, without any plus zeros or +, or -, or commas, or anything, as following in the image.
Is there a easy way to do it?

I believe I've found a bug with marker styles. I found this while editing a profile style. Under my profile style I have the Point of Vertical Intersection set to PI Point for the marker style.
Here is the screenshot of the marker style for the plan view.
Here is the screenshot of the marker style for the profile view with part of my profile shown next to it. Notice how the marker color is different in the profile than what it's set to. It's also not changing layers. It seems that the profile setting for the marker style display doesn't actually work. It takes the settings for the plan view and ignores the profile display style.

I read all of the posts I could on point gaps and know how to make the leader reach for the center of the point. What I want is for the leader to actually attach to the block of the style I have created. Is this possible, or do I need to find a new way to label of these points so that the leader touches the block. Also I noticed the gap is not consistent from point to point.
I am using civil 3d 2011 with the latest service pack.

Can't seem to figure out the correct style menu to access in order to turn the pink circles that represent (I believe) the station markers OFF when I go to view my corridors in object viewer or section editor...

I created 3 marker styles to be used be applied as markers within 3 figure styles, but using the same block for all 3 marker styles. The size of the marker styles is set to "Use fixed scale" and all have a Y and Z scale of 1 but different X values. Unfortunately it seems that if the X and Y values are different the marker will not show up on the figure.

I have my layer set up as dashed linetype for lines. My point style marker is set up as continuous linetype. When I import the survey file it automatically draws the lines correctly, inserts the correct marker, and places them on the correct layer. But the marker is dashed as well and not continuous. Is something overriding this setting?

How do you get a point marker that uses a block with attributes to show the attributed text?
We are using tree symbols that have the size of the tree as an attribute, but when the points that use that block come in...the block shows up w/out any attributed text. Tried to edit the "block" or point marker with attedit command, but C3D tells me it is not a block. Understand that it is a "marker" for the point. But, what is stopping the text size of tree from showing up?

In previous versions of Civil 3D there was a grip on the point marker that allowed me to rotate the block used as a point marker, where did this grip go in 2013? How can I rotate an individual point marker without having to create a separate point style?

I import a csv file into my drawing and all the points and figures get drawn correct and on the correct layers.
But I end up getting some extra things also:
1. a little white circle comes in from the marker styles. it comes in on layer V-SURV-NTWK
2. i also get an extra white line that comes in on layer 0.
I have stopped these things from happening now by hitting the light bulb for the "basic" Marker Style and the "basic" Feature Line Styles. But i would really like to know what the Marker Style and Feature Line Styles are and what they are there for.

Is there any way to increase the size of the marker that shows up on the plan view when you select a PI in the elevation editor? It is so small that if I have the feature line selected I can't see the marker over the highlighted line. I generally have to zoom to a PI so I can see where I am.

Is is possible to have an attributed block in a marker style or note style? I would like to have editable text upon insertion of the marker or text? I have tried unsuccessfully to get it to work. Does the fact that C3D displays the marker and note as objects prevent it from being editable? Is there a workaround?

Is there a reason why the "node" osnap won't recognoze certain point markers? I have recently begun using named plot styles and I have been revising some of our markers to reflect this. I have noticed that some of the point markers (it seems like markers that use a circle as part of the marker) won't show the node marker no matter how I hover around it. Others seem to be normal.

C3D 2012 SP3..I want to label the subassembly I have created. It is easy enough to create the label style and apply it through the code set styles. I want to drag the labels for pavement depth, creating a leadered situation. Why does the program create multiple labels for each marker or link? Can this be limited to one lable for the marker and link?

Is there a way to change the marker style on general note labels that are already in the drawing without having to select them all and change it in the properties? I want to change the marker style from "basic" to "none" on the note labels but I'm not seeing a ToolSpace setting to change them all at the same time without having to individually change it...

I want to navigate along my feature line, viewing which point is screen is the current point at the grid.
My feature line shows its points with blue circle & square grips and the current point is showed by a green circle.
The problem is the zoom level, Grips have always the same size but circular green indicator does not.
You can only view this last at a very detailed zoom.
I'd like to have a "big" arrow or something similar.The problem is the great difficulty to identify points....

I know how to edit the pipe part properties to change a pipe from the size indicated in my parts list to another common size for the particular material specified. However, I've run into a non-standard size that is not in the dropdown menu, how can I add another size to the list?
Basically, I need a 1.5" on the list in the attached screep cap.

I am trying to load multiple Text Sizes into AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 so that I can have a list of the standard text sizes (3/32", 3/16", 1/4", 3/8") to choose from the Annotation tab > Text Group > Annotation Text Height drop down list, instead of having to type them in each time.
At first I thought that I could just add the different text sizes using the TEXTSIZE variable command into my drawing template file, but apparently the Text Sizes entered are only retained for that particular session of AutoCAD Civil 3D. Is there perhaps some other system variable that controls this setting being retained for more than one session??
Then I thought I could just create a program to load the sizes. I originally tried creating a C# .NET program to load the text sizes, but ran into a problem. I then I tried creating another version of a C# program, as well as an AutoLISP script, thinking that it was perhaps some limitation to my approach (which still may be the case). But I still keep running into the same problem. The problem is that only the last text size specified is actually entered into the list of available text sizes. The other text size values appear to be processed but are not retained in the Annotation Text Height drop down list.
The following is my first attempt with C#:
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
public class CreateTextSizes : Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.IExtensionApplication
{
public void Initialize()
{
// Create following Text Sizes: 0.09375 (3/32"), 0.1975 (3/16"), 0.25 (1/4"), 0.375 (3/8")
[code].....
The following is my attempt with AutoLISP:
(defun c:LOADTEXTSIZES()
(Command "TEXTSIZE" 0.09375)
(Command "TEXTSIZE" 0.1975)
(Command "TEXTSIZE" 0.025)
(Command "TEXTSIZE" 0.375)
(Command "TEXTSIZE" 0.09375)
)
