alignment Data

[nyaromulo]

Hello all

 

I want to fill out my alignment table with good stuff like "bearings, distances, deltas, radius and so on"

 

The only way I know how to do get alignment report to use on my table is to:

under Alignments menu>Edit Alignment Geometry....

-----On the Comand line: Select Alignment (I select alignment)

-----"Alignment Layout Tools" appears

under it

-----I pick "Pick sub-entity" then

-----"Alignment Layout Parameter" appears

then i select a line or curve to get bearing/distance/radius and so on

 

Is this the way to do it on Civil 3D? I believe there should be an easier away to get alignment report. (Inroads program does it pretty straight)

 

Any help?

 

thank you

Did you try Alignments > Add Tables?

You can set up a table style unde Toolspace > Settings > Alignment > Table Styles

Yes I did,

 

Table>Add Line

'Table Creation' dialog box appears.

After i fill in the numbers of rows and colomns, then I pick

"pick from drawing"

On the command line it prompt: Select "alignment Lines':

so i select alignment and oopps

Comand line return "Nothing selected"

I know, for sure, that i have selected the crazy alignment

What am i doing wrong? That is why i was doing it the long way!

 

By the way my alignment is a one element, is this the issue and if so how can i separate the alignment to have each element on it's own?

Before you can make an alignment table, you need to label the alignment first... Alignments > Add Alignments Labels > Add Alignments Labels

Would the Reports Manager help with this? General > Reports Manager (it opens in Toolspace)

Hello Ipserfert and Rustysilo,

your ideas worked! I like the Alignments>Add Alignment Labels>Multiple Segment more because it creates a table automatically after I go to Alignments>Add tables>Add segments. It’s awesome!

Thank you
