Profile View: Displaying two elevations per chainage

[MazDyason]

Hi there,

I've drawn a profile and would like to show the elevations of each surface selected in different bands. I've set up the bands easily enough though when they display on the section I've got two levels either side of the chainage line one with 0.01 precision and one with 0.001 precision - I only want to display one. I've tried fiddling with the Profile View Properties but don't seem to be getting very far.. Any ideas??? See attachment...

If I'm understanding what your trying to do you should be able to turn the extra elevations off here.

Profile View Properties>Bands Tab>Show Labels Column>checkbox

The place you need to make the edits are in the Band and Band Style. For the profile data,  it looks like your band style has two components at the major station. Simply go into the Label Composer for the major station and turn the one component visibility to false that you don't want to see (Band Major Label.png). This may mean you need a separate style for your second band.

Alternatively you could use a Y offset on one component of the label to move the label down to where you want it.  Just make sure your Profile 1 is set to one of your profiles and Profile 2 is set to the other (Band Setup.png). 

Hope this helps.

I've never had to set up styles before in Civil 3D, so have found it a bit of a challenge to say the least! I hadn;t realised that all the layers for the different annotation/tick were not on so was changing settings that I couldn't the results for which was confusing matters! I've since turned on all the layers and one by one changed the colours and settings and now undertand a bit better how the styles are set up!

Thanks for your help guys.
