AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Difference Between Override And Child Override?

Sep 6, 2013

What is the difference between an Override and a Child Override?

Why do some sections have Override Check Boxes but no Child Override Arrows, and vice versa?

What happens when you click a Green Check Mark in the box?

What happens when you click a Red "X" on the arrow?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Override Cogo Point Elevation Label With Text

Dec 17, 2012

How I would replace the Elevation label on a point with Alphanumeric text on certain points in a point group (or if it can be done at all)

Some background info:

I work with site diagrams that have monitoring wells and each one has a groundwater elevation value that gets updated every year according to field data. Our current setup is that the monitor well name and elevation values are displayed using point labels and looks like:

x 12-1 (Monitoring well name)

   788.432 (Groundwater elevation value)

However, sometimes the monitoring well is dry and we need to display 'DRY' instead of a numeric elevation value. Autocad won't let me put 'DRY' as an elevation because it's not a number. Is there a way to override this, or somehow make the label display 'DRY' if elevation of 0 is entered? 

Another use to overriding point label elevation is that sometimes the groundwater elevation that we get from the monitoring well is so far off from the general contour pattern that we will put the elevation value of that well in brackets such as (788.432) and indicate that this means the elevation was not included in the groundwater contour flow map. 

Is there a way to do this override, or is there another method I should be using to label my monitoring well elevations? I know I could just MTEXT everything, but that's double the time to update the point elevations for the contours and then updating the mtext to display the numerical elevation values.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Line Increment Not Respected At Start

May 13, 2013

Creating sample lines at a specific increment within a range starting from the start of the range is impossible unless the start of the range is divisible by the increment.  This is a defect that needs fixing.

Meanwhile you'll find me typing in the 93 locations for my sample lines.  I believe this is what we made computers for.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Code To Display Station Of Feature Line At Start Of Segment

Mar 13, 2012

I have a feature line, and a labels table created for it. The table has the following columns: Line or Curve #, Station, Segment Start X, Segment Start Y, Segment Start X, Bearing/Delta, Length, Radius, Grade Ahead.

what code I need for the table to display the station of the feature line at the start of the segment?

I also have an alignment with the same stationing over top of the feature line, but Im not sure how to code a reference text into the table either. I can create an end segment reference text for the plan view labels but even if I copy that code into the labels table it doesn't work.

Photoshop Elements :: Hitting Enter Doesn't Start A New Text Line?

Sep 3, 2013

I'm using an HP Envy x2, which is a tablet-laptop hybrid with an attachable keyboard, and I'm having an issue with Adobe Photoshop Elements 11.
 
When I attempt to start a new line of text in a text layer by pressing "Enter," it doesn't let me start a new line of text; instead, it stops editing the text layer altogether. I would like to be able to press "Enter" and have PSE11 start a new line of text in the text layer; I have been using Elements to create graphics since 2007 and have never encountered this problem.
  
I have already tried:
- Uninstalling and re-installing PSE11
- Ctrl + Enter, Shift + Enter, Fn + Enter
- Resetting the type tool
- Making sure the spacing is set to Auto
- Turning on and off the Num Lock key via on-screen keyboard

AutoCad :: Publish Using Page Setup Override Won't Override

Nov 21, 2012

I'm using Sheet Set Manager in Autocad 2011. I'm using 'page setup override', and as plot area 'print extents'. So far, so good. Until someone forgets something outside the title block, and the extents feature is not good anymore (several people working in the same projects).

So, I decide to use as plot area 'Layout' instead, typing the X & Y to determine the area to be plotted.

Now, the setup "override" doesn't override. It’s using the drawing plot area from the drawing itself, which completely defeats the purpose. Am I missing something?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Line Length To Dimension Override?

Sep 23, 2011

My goal is to be able to select a line and a dimension and then have the line's length appear as the text override for the dimension.  I have the code to substitute the variable "dist" for the dimension text:

(setq dimselected (entsel "
Select Dimension:"))
(setq newlength dist)
(command "dimedit" "n" newlength dimselected "")

but am having problems extracting the line's length to the variable and setting setting it equal to the variable.  To make things more interesting, the value needs to be in inches with fractional inches accurate to 1/16".

AutoCad :: Keep Original String In Text Override?

Aug 15, 2011

I know it is easy to enter special characters in using “%%” escape sequence. However, if I am not entering in single or multiline text, but rather in a dimension annotation’s “override” field, I found that the newly entered text completely overrides the original dimensional annotation.

For example, if originally I had a diameter of 7.98, and I would like to put a Φ sign in front of it to make Φ7.98, but it seems that there is no way to preserve the original content of 7.98 together with the Φ sign.

Is it possible to keep the original measurement within the string? What is the special character representing the original measurement?

I have a text style called standard2 in a drawing, I put all text whether it be in blocks, dimensions, mtext, dtext everything into the style I want.  Purge the drawing which gets rid of the style, save it, close it then reopen.  I then get Standard style reset, existing objects moved to standard2 and now the standard2 style is back in the drawing.  This problem is only affecting some drawings and not all drawings.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Viewport Layer Color Override

Sep 13, 2013

I have a drawing with polylines that are set to color 6 in model space and are also set to color bylayer.

When I go to my layout and click inside my viewport and pull up layer manager and change the viewport color for that layer to color 12, only parts of the polylines change to the color 12 while other parts remain color 6.

If while I'm in the viewport I change the model color as well to color 12, then all the polylines turn to color 12.This is a problem though, because in some layouts I what that layer to be color 6, and in others I want it to be color 12, or 4 or 5 or whatever.

I could not match this situation even if I wanted to where you draw a line, and half of it is one color while the other half is another color.why the viewport color overrides are behaving like this.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Match Line Text Not Plotting

Jun 12, 2013

I am using Civil 3D 2011 because of a contract. Monday I created the View Frames and cut the sheets. As of this morning everything was printing properly. Over the day I added alignment labels to the sheets and other call outs, and now the Match Line text is not printing.

I have moved the match line object to the top of the drawing order, double checked the layer to verify that it is not set to no plot, and verified that the xref with the match line is on the top of the drawing order.

Attached is a screen capture of the corner PDF I plotted.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Multileader Text Sitting On Line

I have a Multileader Style and have the Mtext to come in with "Underline top line".  The text sits right where I want such as EXIST. 24 RCP but when I enter something with an inch or foot symbol such as EXIST. 24" RCP the text will end up sitting right on the leader line.  I don't see where I can set an offset for the Mtext coming in with the leader.  What can I do to make this change?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Line And Band Text Shift In Viewport

Sep 23, 2010

We are using Civil 3D 2010, Version 4.1 and it is being used on both WinXP and Win7.

This is an issue that has been coming up at different times with profile views and them shifting when viewed from our viewports in our layout tab.  It looks correct in the model space.  But it shifts to the right 10' in the layout tab.  We have 7 tabs in this drawing.  I have looked through all of the profile view settings and it does not seem like any of these are the issue.  I created a new viewport in the same tab and received the same shift to the right.  I then created a new tab in the same drawing (not copied from the one that has the issue), created a new viewport, and the shift is not there.  The PSLTSCALE, MSLTSCALE, and LTSCALE are all set to 1 in all of th tabs.

Woudl there be a layout tab setting that is causing this? This is happening on all of our machines with this drawing so I know it is not a specific user/machine issue.  I have attached a .pdf showing the three cases described above if that were to provide any additional insight.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Select Line Or Piece Of Text And Change Color

Jul 5, 2012

Just installed service pack 2 on Civil 3d 2012...

I go to open a drawing; drawing opens fine and views fine for a second, but then everything changes to viewing Color 9.... I am able to select a line or a piece of text and change it to any color imaginable but it always stays color 9. Although I am able to create a line and have it the correct color, it is just everything that had been existing in the current drawing at the time...

I have tried shademode, which if I put it into a 3d wireframe views fine in modelspace... but it always is going back to the 2d wireframe visual style that is the problem...

I cannot seem to find any problems with the drawing... I have run audit and purge all, I open backed up files and autosaves, all doing the same thing... I even had someone else open the drawing with the same occurence...

AutoCad :: Reverse Start And End Points Of Line?

Sep 1, 2012

Is there a way of reversing the start and end points of a line? I have a lot of mirrored lines on my model, and so the direction (start/end) is also mirrored. This poses a problem when i export the model to another program witch has a coordinate system based on the direction of the entity (in this case a line). So i come back to the question, is it possible to change(reverse) the start/end position to already drawn (mirrored) lines? Btw i am using acad2011
