Cross section labeling

[trynders]

Hi all,

I have created some cross sections and have some labels.  I really only want the top surface lines to be labeld with the slope.  not each link.  or shape?

From what I can tell based on your description and image, it looks like the labeling of your cross sections is being handled through the Section View Group Properties > Sections tab and the Style (or Code Set Style) that is getting applied to your design corridor.  If you edit the Code Set Style that is applied, you can see what Links or Shapes in turn have a Label Style applied to them.  If you see links or shapes that correspond to your subassembly sublayers, you can just change the Label Style to <none> to turn off their display.  If you are not seeing all the link codes that are part of your subassemblies you need to use the Import Codes button to bring in the codes from the subassembly.  You actually might want to copy the existing Code Set Style and then modify the copy, and then apply the copy to the Section View Group Properties.  If it turns out that the subassembly has the same link names applied to multiple links then the subassembly needs to be redefined to have different link names, so that you can have labeling granularity if you will.

Dang,

Still lost... I found where I could click on a subassembly and enter RemoveSubassemblyCodes at the command line but it returns..."Cannot remove codes from a script-generated subassembly".  It believe I need to edit the sub assemblies and remove the point codes from the sub base.  Don't know how to do that.  Looking at the attached PDF, can I delete the bottom two circles (point codes)?

You do not need to remove the subassembly codes, you need to specify how you want Civil 3D to label the subassembly links or in your case how not to label them.  So I would really need to look at the assembly itself to see how the codes are setup and by what method you are labeling the cross sections.  Not sure what version of C3D you are running, so you may see things differently than I.  

Can you post of a copy of the file, or if you prefer send me a private message and I will send you my email so that you can email me the file?  Otherwise, if what I said previously did not make sense when you went though it then it is difficult for me to know what is going on.
