Pipe Crossings - Profile View Check Boxes

[mmichel6UEHA]

I have an Idea - 

Add a check box that shows the crossings within the stations of the profile view. Make sure that the profile displays only the crossings that intersect the alignment and not just perpendicular to the alignment

"Crossings with Profile within Stations"

For example, I'll have an alignment that crosses 32 pipe but I only want the ones checked that actually cross within the portion of the alignment that is the profile view.

What do you think?

I would post this to the Civil 3d ideas page.  https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/civil-3d-ideas/idb-p/31

There it can gather support until it is hopefully adopted by Autodesk.  I would vote for it.

You are right I thought I posted it there. My bad.

It doesn't matter. If they are all selected only the ones in the station  limit of the view are shown.

the check box is there to filer the crossing objects only.

That is most definitely not how that button works. The "show only crossing pipes" looks for intersections with the alignment.

I'm doing a project right now with like a four miles of water main, storm, sanitary in a circle. 

I should mention that I am talking about production drawings, not a source drawing with an overall profile. I can only display roughly 350 feet of alignment on a sheet (standard sheets). Below I am using an architectural drawings but same situation. 

show only crossing pipes is selected below.
