Trouble with PaperSpace

Hey guys,

 

I'm having some troubles with AutoCAD Civil 3D, I've been working on a uni project and  I need to start placing my model into paperspace to start printing. When I create a viewport everything is way out of scale, some text is huge, the graphs seem to be vertically exaggerated to the point that they come up as lines.. I've tried to play around with the scaling and the exaggerations in the model functions but I've had no luck... 

 

I have attached some pictures to describe what I am talking about below.

 

If someone could please give my some guidence as to how I can fix these problems that would be greatly appreciated.

 

Kind Regards,

This is how my model looks.

This is what the viewport looks like.

This is the exaggerated text in the profile views.

Hi,

 

all sizes (most cases text and annotation objects) defined in Civil3D-styles are depending from viewport scale, and to see them in the correct size you have to run _REGEN (or _REGENALL) after you changed the scale/zoom-factor.

So the way for profileviews is: zoom first within the viewport so you can see the axis of the diagrams as large as possible, then set the viewports scale to a value you need for plotting and then run _REGENALL ==> now the text/labels/bands are regenerated for that specific viewport scale.

Hi,

 

>> Regen didn't work, but regenall worked!!

_REGEN only works in the current space, so if you are in paperspace and not (within the viewport) in modelspace, only the paperspace get's regenerated.

If you do a double click within the viewport, then _REGEN would help ... for the content visible in that viewport.

The advantage of _REGENALL is that it regenerates all that is currently visible, so objects in paperspace and also objects in all viewports (the disadvantage of _REGENALL is: it's slower 😉 ).

 

Anyway, good to know it's working now for you, thx for the feedback!
