Add object to blank profile

[lohitha_prjct]

Hi,

In my model, when I check under Prospector>Alignment>Profiles there is a profile called 'RoadProfileRef2345' but it does not include any vertical profile elements (it is just a blank profile only the name). I want to draw a profile under this but the problem is I cannot display the profile creation toolbar. This is simply because, in order to display the toolbar it asks to select the profile but nothing to select.

Is there any way to add elements to this Profile and how to display the toolbar in such situations?

Thanks in advance.

1. Open "ProjectExplorer"

2. Select the Profile with no Objects

3. Choose, "Select ..."

4. Start EditProfileLayout

Thanks for the reply.

How can I access ProjectExplorer?

Depending on your Civil Version, follow the Help text.

Checked that but it looks like it is not available in my installation.

Is there any otherway to do the same?

a) ProjectExplorer is a quite cool extension, included in Civil 3D License. What Civil 3D Version you are using?

b) Yes, use QSELECT and select the Profile by Name.

QSELECT Method works.

I have CIvil 3d 2023
