Duplicate geometry point labels in PV bands

Hi There,

 

Pardon my ignorance..

 

I do know that tere is supposed to be an algorithm in C3D that will recognise when two geometry points are coincident on a profile view...that is, say a profile vertical geometry point happens to occur on a major station (for example).

 

I have never seen this actually work.

 

When I have this situation, the labels stagger and I get two columns of identical data on my PV.

I know I can remove individual labels bY CTRL+select and eIther erase or turn visibility to false, but I would rather that C3D figured it out for me and removed the duplicate data.

 

Has this been fixed in the latest release?

 

Viideo link explains what I mean..

If you post up the drawing, I would be willing to try it out in the current version if you don't have access to it. If you don't want to post it publicly, I have a gmail account that starts with c3dplus.

 

By the way, those are some pretty impressive bands, did you create them?

Here's the profile view in 2013. It appears to work the way you think it should work (I think it's the same location you were looking at in your video).
