Sample Lines and Section View

Why is the section view longer than Sample line?

I can not find setting for offset or width of section view.

Please see the pic!

Hi,

 

if you would upload your dwg-file I guess we could answer this. It most probably depend on the profile view style, but this is just guessing.

 

Also let us know which version of Civil 3D you have.

Thanks!

I changed these and it is ok now!

But my sample lines are 7 m on each side but the section view is twice as long so I do not understand if "1" is 1 m or another scale?

Hi,

 

sorry to only have a German screenshot, but what you miss (as I understand) is this setting (was 1 and should be changed to 0) ... is this what you were looking for?

 

Inside the profile view style, activate the third tab and change these setting:
