No "Add labels and tables" panel in my annotate ribbon (AutoCAD Civil 3d 2013)

[Anonymous]

I dont have a "Add labels and tables" button in my annotate ribbon. Just upgraded to Autocad civil 3d 2013 and I cant label anything. Any help will be appreciated

Have you tried right clicking in panel area of "Annotation Tab" on Ribbon >Show Panels>Labels & Tables>checked?

Yes I have, there seems to be no option for add labels and tables. I've searched everywhere for a solution,  I used to use labels all the time and am quite familiar with where it should be. Does Civil 2013 have this button?

Do you mean here? This is 2013 C3d SP1

Yes, its not there. See attachment

Thanks for the caption, it's clear why it's unavailable.

You need to switch to the "Civil 3D" Workspace from "2d Drafting and Annotation" which is shown.

Are you using a stock workspace?  That looks like it might be a C3D as CAD type WS.

Yes its a stock workspace with minor adjustments, I changed my workspace to 3d modelling and its still not showing

It's not a part of the "3D Modeling Workspace", the "Civil 3D" Workspace has it OOTB as in my caption.

Also verify how you are launching Civil 3D as there are options for Launching as AutoCad and if your using a desktop icon etc. to  launch, the contents in the "Target" are important as they can be set to launch vanilla Acad or contain the AecBase.dbx info for launching C3d.

Jay you are awesome, all this time I totally disregarded those icons.

I really appreciate the time
