Description of icons in prospector and other menus - Civil 3D

michael_jamesG7LDR — Fri, 14 Nov 2025 20:23:59 GMT

Is there a place where I can find a comprehensive list of the description of the icons within the prospector and other windows? In the screen shot I am adding more sources to the sample lines (in a model I didn't create) and I have no idea what some of these symbols mean..

or if you can describe them to me that would be helpful too.👍

This is what you have plus a few more. Type Prospector symbols in the help window to explore more.

There will be symbols you come upon that simply have no description to be found

I checked when you originally posted. I don't find any master list of Icons and/or icon states. Only partial lists such as the one posted by @Joe-Bouza

hi @michael_jamesG7LDR

the whole list is in Toolspace, in sample more sources they just have this extra Section indication to the bottom left , so in Sample more sources all icons just icons from Toolspace+section indication.
