Survey Symbol Blocks

[rico27511]

I have several survey point styles that use blocks with wipeouts. I cannot seem the get the wipeouts to work properly when used in conjunction with the survey points. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a workaround?

I am assuming you are talking about the issue that has the mask on top of the block itself, causing you to not be able to see anything. This is a wierd little kink in civil 3d. It appears to be caused by the order things are created within the block, draw order has no effect.

The solution is to open the block in block editor & copy everything but the mask to the clipboard, I copy with basepoint, and then delete everything excluding the mask from the block. Then paste everything back into the block & save & close the block. If you need more details let me know.

Thanks,

Dave,

Yes, that is the issue I was referring to. I will give this a try. Thanks!
