Alignments and Named Plot Style

[mporretto]

Hi, All.

I'm working with STB and I had set Civil 3D 2018 to create all alignments in "00-ST-C3D-OBJETO-ALIGNMENT" on Object Layers tab under Drawing Settings.

I also create a layer named "00-ST-C3D-OBJETO-ALIGNMENT" for the centerlines of the road that use "255-100-0.50" plotstyle.

This plot style plot the lines, curves and spirals with 255 color (working over images) at 0.50 mm lineweight.

When I plot my centerline I get a black line with 0.10mm lineweight and not a white line with 0.50 lineweight as my STB.

As you can see, my stations, label stations, line extensions, everything use the colors of the STB, but not the centerlines.

Can you help me?

Thanks in advance and I'm sorry about my english.

Check your alignment styles under "display". You can override plot weights, line types and colors in the style. Unless you want to override, set everything in the style to "by layer."

Is it possible you have a layer viewport plot style override?

Hi MMcCall402,

I'm plotting from Model. No Viewports.

Thanks!!!

MMcCall402 has a good point....viewport overrides?

Does it look correct on the screen?

Wow, I got it!!!!!

Every components from the aligment (lines, curves and spirals) are set to a layer with yellow color but plot with a plot style at white color with 0.60 mm linewight. The extension lines are set to a layer with yellow color too, but plot with a plot style at red color with 0.25 mm linewight. For that, the alignment object should be with Plot Style = BYBLOCK...

Now the plot looks great...

Thank you everybody!!!!!!
