Help! Surface Spot Elevation Label w/ dynamic location (North/East/South/West)

 

 

I know that I can add coordinates for such elevation using text component editor but I have to add the letter "N" for North or "E" for East to identify the location of the elevation. But, is there a way to make a label style that reads up the location of an elevation automatically?

 

I've attached pictures below for this issue.

Hi ctarun_Civil, welcome to the forums.

 

First off, the forum you posted to is for programming with the Civil 3D API, not for questions regarding general styles and such. These are better asked in the main C3D forum where thare are foar more people around who may be able to respond quicker.

 

Second, I'm not sure I follow what you want. NSEW from what? Typically coordinates are shown as Northings & Eastings based on some coordinate system. You may be able to get what you want, assuming that the W & S are negative coordinates, using exprssions and multiple Text Components.

Thanks Jeff_M 🙂

 

And Opps, I didn't know I was on Customization section. I will see if I can figure a way to move to the right forum.

 

Anyhow, I guess what I should be asking is how to generate an expression to show the quadrant location of the coordinate as for the prefix of each coordinate. ie. N. 1+239  W. 1+239  etc.
