Combined Miter Bend Labels

Hello,

 

I am trying to get C3D to calculate a combined (or compounded) miter bend as an alignment or profile label. Similar to the way that it gives you the angle of a vertical bend on the profile. I thought the best way to do this was to create an expression that allowed me to do so, however none of the expression properties list anything that will allow me to use the alignment angle in the profile or visa versa.  Am I going about this the wrong way? Am I missing something? Or is this just not possible?

The only way I have found is to put the info into a data band.

1. Profile View Properties

2. Bands tab

3. Band Type: Horizontal Geometry

4. Create a new band style.

5. Band Detail tab, pick Point of Intersection and press Compose Label...

6. Layout tab, delete existing components, then add a new Text Component. In Contents, add the PI Included Angle. Press OK

7. Be sure on the Display tab of Horizontal Geometry Band Style dialog, you scroll to the bottom and turn on Point of Intersection Labels

8. OK about three times to get out.
