C3D 2013:Importing Survey Data; Figures-Line Codes in has ! in Yellow Shield

[scottchang]

Hi all,

In my AudoCAD Civil 3D 2013 program, I set up a network and imported a survey data listed below:

by using PNEZD (comma delimited) in Figures-LineCodes => Import =>Import point file.  I just got the 50 points without the figures, and there is a "!" in a yellow shield in front of Figures-LineCodes - see the attached file.  I think I made a mistake in the Code Line # 28 with "B" and the Code Line 30 without "E" that causes the "!"  in the yellow shield in front of Figures-LineCodes.  I don't know how to resolve this problem.  Please kindly help and advise me how to resolve this problem.  

Thanks in advance,

Scott Chang

Hi Todd, Thanks for your nice, valuable response.

I did "Update" as you instructed. The "!" in Yellow Shield was gone.  Only 50 points appeared - no figures of  "Line", "Pool", "BLDG", "LOG" on the drawing - see the attached file. 2 new things to ask you:

1) In the Line 50 statement of the Codes, what do the "x0 -2.05 11.41 -21.23 -17.85 -9.66 2.05 CLS" mean?  Please tell  me the meaning of this set of Codes.

2) If I correct the codes for the Lines 28 thru 33 in the txt file, how can I re-import the corrected txt file to get the right fire?

Please kindly help and respond again.

Many Thanks again,

Scott Chang

#1

The code for point 50 will create a building using the offsets from a line created between point 49 and 50.  the x0 command is to extend the line from 49 to 50 before drawing the offsets.

In the attached screenshot, I changed the x command to match our linework code set EXT.

#2

If you have not done alot of edits in the drawing, you can simply delete the import event in the survey database and re-import the corrected file.  This will erase the points and linework in the drawing.
