Routine that makes a label style current, then places label

We have to label the curb radii on site plans, so I just made a label style in Civil 3D that I can quickly add to any radius. 

 

I'd like to have a routine that sets that makes that label style current, and then allows me to place the label. Without having to type 'add' and pull up the labeling dialogue box, select that label style, hit okay, and then start clicking polylines.

 

The label style is called CG2. Ideally I'd like to be able to just type that and start clicking lines. Any help is appreciated.

I suggest you ask over in the >Civil3D Customization Forum<.  Someone there may already have something, but in any case they'll be familiar with such labels, which are not a feature of "vanilla" AutoCAD.

Yes post in CIV3D section !

 

Inside CIV3D is the commands for that option so need to find that 1st, then can do some form of shortcut maybe.

 

eg

 

[toolspace]^C^C_AeccToolspace 
[Align-Pline]^C^C_AeccCreateAlignmentEntities 
[Align-Edit]^C^C^p_AeccEditAlignment 
[Align-Rev]^C^C_AeccReverseAlignDirection

 

 

Need to find in the CUI.

 

Post  a dwg as only way to get at CG2.
