How can I display a PVI elavation in the profile view data bands?

I have a design profile representing a canal bed with a vertical drop which I have created by inserting a PVI at the same station but with a lower elevation to represent the drop. I have done this for other drops in the rest of the canal bed profile. But how can I show these elevation changes  in the profile data band. Am not looking for an elevation difference between two profiles but an elevation difference in the same profile (drop at the same station). I can only show the original major station values elevations but not the elevations at the PVIs. How do I display them in the profile data band?

Thanks

Hi @zac.mweb, I hope you're doing fine.

You can show both labels on the band but make sure they are not exactly one on top of the other. I mean, place a small difference between them (1mm). Then, in your band style, click the ellipsis button and make sure your band style is labeling the point of  vertical intersection (see the image)

I hope this helps. Best regards!

Hello Engineer Fernandez, I tried what you instructed but I haven't got the desired results. However is it possible that I have turned off some layers in the display tab of the view tab. I have attached a screen shot. If it is then please help me point out which layers to turn on. Screenshot (4).png

Hi @zac.mweb, you are right, you need to turn on that option, but additionally, you have to make sure that your band style has the label for Vertical Geometry within the band settings. See the image and the attached file. Remember that since the stations of both PVI are really close, they seem to be one on top of the other (I have staggered them)

 

In this image you can see both labels:

In this image you can see the band style configuration I was talking about:

I chose profile 1 elevation, but you can use profile 2 elevation. That depends on if you have an existing ground profile in your profile view.

In case it is confusing, I have attached the drawing I created to show you the images.

I hope this helps!

Best regards!
