Vertical Curve Label at Top of Profile

[Anonymous]

Has anyone figured out to attach (anchor) the vertical curve/tangent labels to the top of the profile instead of being directly above the curve/tangent? I was able to do this in LDT using frame labels which made room for all of my pipe data, etc.

Try a profile view band anchored to the top showing vertical geometry. It looks like you can edit the style and show the same information as the profile labels.

You can anchor to a elevation in the profile view. Select the profile (not
the view), right click, edit labels.

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed. I'm still having problems with the line labels though. I set the anchor to a fixed elevation just like the curve labels, but they still are anchored to the line. Any idea why this label didn't take?

If you are NOT looking for a dimension looking object, you can beat the system here by creating a style similar to the VC style that has a dimension line, with no start and end lines or arrows. Make the dim line the same color as the grid, anchor the elevation to the line, and then fix the line elevation as Scott suggests.

That worked beautifully! By setting the visibility of the line to false, I didn't even need to worry about the color.
