Flatten point styles to elevation

Is there a way to change all your point styles display mode (flatten to elevation, use point elevation, or exaggerate elevation) at once? I don't mean make a new style and then apply it to all points: I want to systematically change it for all my current point styles.

Nope.  Point styles have to be edited one at a time.

Unless you know someone who can whip up a quick lisp to do it for you. 🙂 See attached lisp file.

Jeff,

 

Thank you for very useful SETPOINTDISPLAYMODE.lsp code. There should be a way of global editing of other Point Style settings e.g. "leader stops at marker: no" or Orientation Reference etc.

I have a problem though: after successfully executing SETPOINTDISPLAYMODE.lsp for several times, it stopped working:
The error message is as follows:

 

Command: SETPOINTDISPLAYMODE
; error: Automation Error. Problem in loading application

 

Any idea how to fix it?

 

Thank you,

Przemek

Any chance you have a Civil 3D 2015 Version of your setpointdisplaymode.lsp?

I've updated the file to support up to Civil 3D 2018. Hope that is okay with Jeff M.

Sir, Is it possible to change all point elevation as flatten, if I use the lisp.

The lisp changes the display of the points not the actual elevation of the points.

If you have cogo points in the drawing (not in survey database), you can use the panorama, Ctrl-A to select all points, right-click the elevation column header and select Edit ... and change all to a single elevation. This permanently alters the point elevations.

Another option is to select a point group in the prospector, edit the properties of the group and under overrides, check the Point Elevation box and set an elevation. This is an override so you can go back to the original elevations.

If the points are in the survey database you can use the SDB points list, Ctrl-A, right-click Edit ..., etc. and then hit the Save button. Again, this is a permanent change.
