Horizontal geometry bands

Anonymous — Sat, 17 Feb 2018 02:14:18 GMT

Hello,

I am learning how to create a horizontal geometry bands and was wondering if anyone has a couple of screen cast on how to do this? This can be a simple alignment with just a simple curve, stationing, tic marks, etc. and what ever information it can give me.

Thanks

Hi,

Kindly check this thread. It is similar to your inquiry about profile. <LINK> Post 2 of 2.

I think Jeff Bartels video would be the easiest to understand. Please see link below:

1) Labeling Several Civil 3D Design Profiles in a Single Profile View

Please see attached animated gif to give you some guidance regarding Horizontal bands.(HorizontalBandQuickDemo.gif)

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Jowenn

Hello,

I don't appreciated it that some one marked this as solved when it is not solved. First I asked for a screen cast showing me how to create a horizontal geometry band what I got was a gif and the link which was provided was for a profile band.

Thanks

Hello fishautodesk124,,

Good morning. I have absolutely no clue what you mean about some one maked this solved, I thought only you can do this? Unless moderators went in and did this, probably you need to contact them for clarity.

with my post above, here is the simple explaination. We are here in the community to help as fast as we can to provide support, guidance and solutions to everyone. It may be via link, words, jpg, animated gif or screencast. Not all the time we are free to do screencast and you have to be appreciative enough that someone spend time trying to provide as much information as possible. I personally would be happy getting more information than nothing at all. With your request of screencast and learn, can’t you play my animated gif and record it via screencast and then you have a screen cast copy where you can play and pause? Sometimes we just need to be creative to get what we want.

If what you need is geometry band how to and that is what I provided then maybe the guy who click this as accepted solution is right. Please consider recording my animated gif yourself via screencast and if you think my logic is right then you can accept or kudo when appropriate.

Btw, thanks Mike for pointing out that the animated gif In my post did explain the horizontal bands.

Most of us here are everyday Civil 3D users and just want to hlep and we just do this in our own time because we just simply enjoy learning and helping.

Cheers,

Jowenn

Hi Joween,

Ok, sorry about that but you say it is a animated gif but when I view it on my laptop it is just a gif. I don't see any animation that is the problem.

Thanks

Hello fishautodesk124,

Its ok its just minor hiccups. I tried to click the animated gif in my iphone took me several minutes to download and it did play. For laptop, I think you need to download it first then try to click open with and choose a browser like Internet Explorer (IE) and see if it will show the animation.

Cheers,

Jowenn

Hello,

Thanks that was the glitch. Since I am still learning this and am very busy with major projects if I have additional questions can I ask you?

Thanks

Hi fishautodesk124,

Yes of course you can ask more questions. Ideally, if the current question have been answered it would be best to click accept solution to assist anyone in their future search about the same topic. In that way this thread remains about Horizontal Geometry Bands only.

Also, I would recommend you posting a question as specific and clear as possible in a new topic as more viewer will see and answer your new questions.

Cheers,

Hi fishautodesk124,

I saw your inquiry via email. The C:256 means it is By Layer. I just prefer to control the color by layer instead of specific color.

To amend them see image below: You can play around with this until you are happy with the color then export them to cad to see the effect. You can even make multiple color just by highlighting a portion and assign a color then go back and assign a different color again to the remaining text.

Hope it gives more clarity.

Cheers,

Jowenn
