C3D Subassemblies not showing on toolpalette

[Anonymous]

Can someone help me with subassemblies?

I am creating a corridor to get the cut/fill for a road going in at a work site.  I cannot get or find any help on how to get subassemblies into the tool palette.  I have seen the previous posts about docking and making sure all the tool palette categories are selected, and they are.  I'm not sure where to go from here. It appears that my subassemblies tool palette don't even exist.

Do I need to re-install the program?  I have seen the v1 enhancements too, and not sure if that would be a fix.  (h t t p : / / u p . a u t o d e s k . c o m / 2 0 1 7 / C I V 3 D / A u t o C A D _ C i v i l _ 3 D ... )

If I'm not mistaken, I need these subassemblies to correctly link the road profile and road alignment to the existing surface topography through the corridor design tool. 

Any help would be great.

thank you,

Adam

I'm not sure why you need all tool palettes, but right click on Tool Palettes and select Civil Imperial Subassemblies (or whichever you actually need for the corridor).  There are too many categories for it to show them all, so it hides extras at the bottom but you can still scroll thru them.  Shouldn't require a reinstall as the basic ones come OOTB.

I have tried that and I don't have those options when I right click the tool palettes (see attachment).  I know that I don't need all tool palettes, but I assume that the civil imperial subassemblies would be there if all palettes were selected.

Dear Friend,

Right click on desktop shortcut of civil 3d and run the program with 'Run as Administrator' mode

This might solve your issue.

Thanks

follow the tabs down the toolpalette and at the bottom you will see what looks like a stack of tab.  Click on that and you should get a long list of other palettes to choose from

Adam,

Have a look at this> Civil tools missing from Tool Palettes in AutoCAD Civil 3D.

Hi 

I don't think you have to reinstall.  They're there.  Try to right click on your Tool Palette tabs on the right hand side of the Tool Palette itself.  Form there, look for the options starting with "Basic" and look at the other available out-of-the-box subassembly categories (e.g., "Lanes", "Shoulders", "Rehab", etc.).  See attached screen capture.

I know there's probably an easier way to organize these into a more focused tab, but I haven't tried.

Interestingly this link no longer works.  Attached is the info for anyone that may need it.

In the corridor menu (menubar set to 1) find the subassembly catalogs. From the catalog you can put the subs into a tool pallet or directly in to a drawing.

The menu option for the subassembly tool pallets just toggles the tool pallet on and off.

Hopefully he got this fixed, but in case not, it's probably time to check your Support File Search Paths under Options.

It should look something like one of these, depending on whether you use server based paths, or individual.

I have the same issue with my tool pallet. I can get the Civil Subassemblies Pallet to show though up by doing the following steps:

1. Right click on the tool pallet and click customize.
2. There you will see a two-pane dialog pop up where you will see empty palette categories on the right and all the various Civil 3D subcategories on the left.
3. Left Click and drag each subassembly subcategory on the left side (like basic, shoulders, daylights, etc) over to the right side directly under the empty Civil Subassemblies Category and click ok.
4. Try to right click on Tool Palette again and you should see Civil Subassemblies as an option now.

This method is quick and dirty. The method mentioned above to fix it at Deployment stage is best, but obviously time consuming.

I recommend following the 4 steps above because it only takes a few minutes.

Resetting to default works for me, thanks a lot!
