Geodetic Labels

[Anonymous]

Is there a way to pick a point c3d 2011 and it put a leader line with the lat and long like it us to do in land desktop companion?

Yes. Create a General Note Label Style which has Lat/Long Properties in the text component. Add the label at a place you desire. Drag it for the leader. If you need more, just copy that first one wherever you need to, the data will auto adjust.

THIS IS ALL NEW TO ME. HOW DO YOU SET UP A GENERAL NOTE?

Here's a link to a quick video showing how to do this:

Thanks alot Jeff.

Sure thing.

Here's a tip for you, right click on everything in C3D (prospector, objects, etc.). There's usually a hint on how to accomplish a task by the contextmenu provided by doing so.

Also, if you find a response which answers your question, please be sure to accept the actual post which helped you as the solution. This will help future searchers quickly find answers to their own questions. Thanks!

Hey, we all know Jeff is a GURU, even if the forum doesn't...

At least, if I'm a "GURU", so is Jeff.

When it comes to crazy titles like that, it reminds me of that line in Groundhog Day, where Bill Murray says something about how maybe God isn't really omnicient, but he's just "been around a really long time"...  

But of course, we still both keep on keeping on, trying to help share our knowledge about how to GET WORK DONE with this crazy software we simultaneously love/hate....  As always...
