Pipe Sumps-C3D2007

[TGKDG]

I have pipes in profile. They sumps are supposed to be equal with the lowest invert in the manhole. I've installed SP2 for 2007 and I am no longer able to move the sumps either by moving the arrow in the profile, or by changing the sump depth in structure propeties or changing the rim to sump depth in the same properties.

I have to get drawigns out now and there are manhole lines running down the profile. I can't print drawings like this.

This seems to be an issue with your install. I'm able to not only
graphically edit my sump elevations with the grips, but change the value
in the structure properties as well. You've either got a corrupt
drawing (run an audit?) or a corrupt install.

Also, this from the readme:

There is a known issue with the Part Lists in Autodesk Civil 3D drawing
templates. Drawings created from Autodesk Civil 3D drawing templates may
contain corrupt Part Lists. Creating Network References using these
templates may cause Network Reference parts to be drawn with incorrect
dimensions as compared to the shared Project Network. It is recommended
that all Part Lists be deleted from the Autodesk Civil 3D drawing
templates, and recreated with the New Parts List command. Dragging and
dropping Part Lists between drawings is not recommended.

Recreate your part lists in the current drawing (and in your template
when you have time).

Read my above post. Recreating your part lists will likely help.

I had the same issue this morning but it seems to have worked itself out
while I was trying to figure out the problem. I don't think its your install
or a corrupt file. Just a shot in the dark but try swapping one of your
pipes for a different size using the pipes pull down menu. This was one of
the last things I did before pipes started acting normal.

Are you using references with these pipes? The problem with the parts list
only applies when working with a project and referencing the pipe network
into another drawing. If you are working in the original drawing then the
parts list may not be the issue here.

Just to test further, what happens if you create a new pipe network
somewhere and drawing it on the same profile? Still have the issue on the
new pipes and structures?
