Data Reference , Best method to do Data Reference If I have more than 50 objects to do data reference into Civil3D file.

Hi,

I have to do Data Reference into a Civil3D Corridor file. I have around 20 alignments and 60 Profiles to do data reference into the Corridor file. I am modeling a Rail Yard project having around 20 alignments for the project.

I have to go to each individual object in Prospector , and Right click and create Data Reference to the current corridor file. This take much time to do the data Rerence in the File.

 

Is there any quick method to do this, For example ; Open the list of Reference objects and Tick all required objects and Click apply.

 

Regards

I believe you can create a folder in the prospector and move all the objects within a certain type into the folder.  You can then reference that folder and all objects will come along.  You can also drag and drop referenced object into a drawing to reference them.

This video might be of help:

It has been a while since I've watched it, but if I remember right, it gives the ability to bring in a lot of data references at once..
