Hey Everybody I searched all these boards and found a couple posts on this but no answers. Is there a way to change the row height in Civil 3D Created Tables (What I'm working with is Parcel Line and Curve Tables). I don't see any options in the styles or table properties menus and changing it in the general autocad tablestyles menu does nothing. Thanks for the help!
It looks like the initial cell height is derived from the text height and cell margin settings in the table style. After creating the table you can modify individual cells as you require but if you 'update' the table it will revert back to the settings of the style.
Sorry it took so long to respond, I'm still not able to change the heights of the tables I am making. I changed the style in the TABLESTYLE menu then made tables and the style wasn't reflected in my settings. There are no options to change the table style in the SETTINGS tab of TOOLSPACE. Any ideas of what I might be doing wrong?
I can change them in the table style but there is no option to 'update' the table when it is a Civil 3D object. Also there is no grip edits on a table that is a Civil 3D object. I would assume this is just a missing feature in the Table Styles of Civil 3D. Maybe they'll fix it in 2007.
I can certainly sympathize with this problem. It has been an ongoing problem since 2006 and still hasn't been fixed that I am aware of. The question being asked is directly related to Parcel Line Tables. Not generic tables where you input the information but the ones generated when you select Line/Curves or Parcels/ Add Tables. It does appear as though the texh heighth does govern the margins as you can see by the attached PDF. The margins are the same heighth as the text. It makes my line tables so obnoxiously huge where I end up exploding them just so I can make them fit on my page. Is there still no fix for this???
Making the switch to Civil 2012 from Land Desktop and a) am making so much use of this board I thought I'd go ahead and join, and b) trying to maintain a positive attitude. Some days the positive attitude is difficult.
Any solutions to the Parcel Table ROW HEIGHT issue yet? I've poked around and the consensus seems to be explode the tables and modify them manually. There is just way too much space for our tastes.
The longer I compu-draft the more I feel the software dictating how our plans look. I mean, I'm all about standards and uniformity across company departments, but geez, do all of our plans have to look the same? I like my line tables with less space in the rows. Dammit. Maybe 2014.
I am just figuring this out too. So when i create my table i create it with the text size that creates the row height i want. then i copy the table and explode it twice. then i can resize the text bigger without having to move them all up and down. i only have to slide the columns over left and right.
it still sucks to have to do all of this but thats what seems to make it easier to fix.
i cant believe that this is not important enough to fix it after years of people complaining.
add it to the list of things that don't matter.....i'll stop before my rant takes the whole page, i feel the anger rising from within.
Many of us have been frustrated by this & my searches have found many threads on the topic but has anyone come up with a work around other than exploding?
That is what we've been doing but there are obviously drawbacks to that solution & just wondering if anyone has disscovered something better?
Since this old thread has been revived, can someone with c3d2015 installed see if the tables have this ability yet ? Since we use tables when space is tight on the map one would think this would have been an added feature by now
Thanks - I found that in an earleir link i posted - I was hoping for a better answer that it had all been updated and njo longer needed to be doen taht way. I ended up using that method - It is not optimal as it is not dynamic.
It amazes me that Autodesk has not added the ability to set the row heights and column widths in the table style configuration settings. Their cell paddings are absolutely ridiculous. All the other crap they keep changing from release to release and they can't seem to fix stuff like this. sigh....
