Remove a row in tables

JoeKidd33 — Thu, 31 Jan 2019 19:20:02 GMT

We are using Civil 3d 2018 and when clicking on a table and choosing remove items from the ribbon, nothing happens. The command REMOVETABLESELSETBYLSTYLE shows up in the command line, but it goes back to a blank command line.

I had SP2 installed, but tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Still does not work.

i think i know what it is, you can remove rows from table that was created from a selection, but not from a table that had everything.

for example, i can remove rows from a points table which was based on selected points in a group, but cannot remove when the table is created for the entire points group. same for pipe structure tables.

I do not quite understand the logic behind this feature.

if i have multiple structures spanned over multiple sheets and i need to create tables by sheet, i have to individually select the structures one at a time on screen and then create tables.

vs.

if i could remove structures from a complete table, i could simply create an all out table, then select the rows there to remove and done. e.g. i could not rename all the null structures so that they are together in the table (Structure-1, Structure-2 etc.) as opposed to my inlets (IN-1, IN-2...), and then easily remove them from the table.

I agree, the tool seems flawed. I love being able to edit the rows because reselecting lots of structures is time consuming. Would be a lot quicker to create by network and use the split table option to approximate how many structures per sheet. Then, remove or add as necessary. Seems like a good wish list item for 2020.

Hey any update on this? or is this tool still useless for large networks?

Cheers,

I haven't upgraded to 2022 yet, but I assume this functionality has not been improved? It's ridiculous to have to go around and select everything for a table...why can't we delete items when table created from network??!

I am just now seeing the same thing in a Sheet Set List table. I cannot delete a row from the table even though all rows are unlocked. FYI.......Civil 3D 2026 with whatever the latest update is.

In a sheet list table you can merge cells. (by column) It will keep the info from the first (upper) cell. Then just edit the height of the merged cells to match the rest.

....okay now I like that........I am going to run with this idea on my next project and see how it works. I hate having "Project Details" listed 11 times in sheet list on the cover page.

Thanks much.

You can select just the sheets you want in the SSM and make a table from that selection. I usually chose select sheets, and the first sheet in each series of sheets, to make the table from. Then I unlock the sheet # column and add in the rest of the sheet range. (ie: 12 is edited/added on to, to become 12-23) Its not a dynamic solution but its better than a 4' long sheet index table.
