When labeling Crest/Sag curves of a profile in a profile view is it possible to have different label styles for similar curves? Here is my specific example. I have two sag curves. The first curve has an entering tangent slope of -2% and an exiting tangent slope of 2%, creating a true low point. The second curve has an entering tangent slope of 2% and an exiting tangent slope of 5%, which does not have a low point. They are both sag curves so are both labeled with the style selected for sag curves. I would like exclude the low point information from label of the curve with no low point. Is there any way to do this?

My profile labels do this automagically. I've attached a zip file with our 2012 roadway template so you can take a look. You didn't say what version you were using, so I thought this would be safe. Feel free to use as you wish.
In future, it would be helpful to know which version.
Thanks for sharing this Lisa, I'd not seen this trick.
Took a bit to follow but it appears the magic is in the anchors and hidden lines.
This is exactly how I am trying to have my profile labels act but they don't. I am going to try to dissect your label styles and figure out the "automagic" that makes that work, because my labels do not perform that way. Is there a specific way I need to set my label styles up to make this work?
I am working with AutoCAD C3D 2014.
I see what you are getting at with the anchors and hidden lines. I will have to play with my styles to get that to work.
Crest & Sag curve labels in my drawing changes on paper space they look ok in model view see attached photos . I need advise on how to make them look similar am using civil 3d 2016
