The vertical spacing in curve and line tables (the space between the text and the horizontal line) is too big. This makes the table too long and hard to fit on maps. For regualr tables, you can modify this. However, for curve and line tables this is not available. Is there a .NET file that creates/formats the tables that I could modify to reduce the spacing??
C3D 2012, but the same is true for 2014.
Dave
Yes I did check that. For regualar tables, that setting is avaialble. For curve and line tables it is not.
Dave
After selecting the Curve Table, from the Ribbon select the 'Table Properties' and from the drop down select 'Edit Table style'. And there you could access the settings related to spaces.
Thanks,
Partha
I must be missing something. I created a line table, (same as a curve table), selected it, then, from the ribbon, selected Edit Table Properties, and the same properties are avaialble as before. Line Spacing and vertical clearanace is not avaialble.
What am I missing??
Dave
Is there any way to get the source for the table that I could manipulate myself? This is a significant problem for many of our maps.
Dave
Thanks for the confirmation Stacy !

Partha,
Having this ability in the API is good, but shouldn't it be added to the table style so any user can change it?
Stacy
Thank you, Jeff. My Acad provider told me I should put it on the wishlist to make sure it got tracked. However, as you noted, this has been on the list since 2006 and nothing done yet. I have to vent a little. Autodesk seems to be intent on coming out with grand new stuff every year, but not so engaged in fixing the little stuff that is an ongoing irritation. A "North Only Bearing" setting comes to mind.
Dave
Jeff / Stacy -
Can you pull out any ref discussion or wish list Id for the same which was logged / reported to Civil 3D team on this UI feature ?
I can go back to them with that ref. / Id to add an appropriate priority.
Thanks,
Partha

Need more? Just search for Table in the C3D Wishes forum. There are many other wishes for things in tables (18 pages worth), but the most oft asked for is the ability to control the cell spacing/padding.
Partha, where would one go to officially log this item as a wish? I thought this is what the Wish forum was for.

Hi Partha
Here we are in 2020 and still no ability to change the spacing?
The issue is the excessive fixed spacing at 3.9 x the text height.
Normally text would be 1 x or 1.5 x (Word has a max of 3 x)
I am sure that is a simple fix change to something more workable.
