Potting new profile

[rcallison]

Is it possible to plot a proposed profile by entering station and elevation?  This was possible in LDD.  Not sure if the feature was tranfered to Civil 3D.

Can you be more specific in what your trying to do?

Print out a station offset report?

Key in profile data by sta./offset?

Yes you can, start profile layout tools and enter a command for such as insert new pvi.

Open transparent commands toolbar and choose the blue icon directly above description in caption.

This will allow for sta. / elev input. (but you must be within command for transparent commands to work).

Another optio is to insert PVI's Tabular. Select the circled icon.

Then enter the station and elevations in the dialog below.

Note from my experience you can not change the verticle curve type after you have entered any information, but a very useful tool. I usually enter all of my PVI without a verticle curve, including start and end, run the command, then open it back up and put in all my PVIs with Verticle curves.
