Custom Alignment tables

Hi everyone, please i need some help.  I want to make an alignment vertex data table, with specific elements of the alignment, but i don't know how to make it.  I tried all of the table pre-load styles of the C3D, but it is not sufficient.

Next i include an example of the table that i am trying to generate.

Please, can you help me with this job.

Many Thanks!

Hi @bcolonXQE5F,  I hope you are doing well. The picture you mentioned in your post does not appear on it.

 

If you want to create a data table for PIs, you can use the Tangent Intersection Labels to make the label look like a table. You can introduce several alignment characteristics (including curve and spiral properties values). Take a look at the following image:

Furthermore, you can also use the Point of Intersection labels (take a look at the following image)

I hope this helps. Best regards!

You can also try generating an alignment table through Project Explorer > Select your Alignment > right click > Quick Report to AutoCAD Table:

From here, select the Sub-Object Type from the drop down list (Alignment PI's):

After selecting the type of data, next you will filter the data to be added to your table as well as the layout & style for the table.  You can select "Use Custom Layout Style" > Edit Layout Style:

The "Layout Options" dialog lets you filter what data from your alignment to display within the table:

After you select the data and the format, you pick a point to insert your table:

Thank you very much Eng. Fernandez, for your prompt response, I see in the screenshots that you attached, how to include the information related to the PI of the vertex of the curves (stations, coordinates, etc.), very good, but I am also interested to adding in the alignment table, the station and coordinates of the PC and the PT of the curves. Is this possible to do?

 

Thanks

Hi @bcolonXQE5F, yes it is possible, but only with the Tangent Intersection Labels, look:

The same goes for spirals.

I hope this helps. Best regards!

Hello v-silvestre, Thank you for your prompt response.
In the table that is generated with the Project Explorer, in addition to the information related to the point of the vertex of the curves (stations, coordinates, etc.), can I also get the station and the coordinates of the PC and the PT of the curves? Does this table, once it is inside the CAD drawing, update automatically?

 

Thanks

Hi, yes I believe it does include Stationing, Northings and Eastings for PT's PC's:

The table is dynamic as well.  Happy to help, let me know if this answers your questions.

 

Thanks!
