Hello,

 

I have tryed to export points using the link you have given me. However I am suppose to have a DEM surface, base on the process, which I currently do not have. I only have AECC points within the Civil 3D drawing that is all i have for now. Is there another way to export points without going through the DEM surface, since i do not have DEM surface at the moment?

No you don't use the dem or surface to export. Just right-click Points in toolspace > prospector tab... etc.

 

With the error you got I would almost think that you do not have any points in the dwg. Are you sure your points are Civil 3d points and not AutoCAD points, Land Desktop points, Softdesk points, etc.?

Maybe the points were created using LDD, and you opened the dwg with C3D. Try Points > Utilities > Convert Land Desktop Points. Then try to export.

Greetings,

I’m using LDD 2009 (with the latest patches installed). After we switch to 2009 from 2007, we have been experience new problems that we are straggling and we can not solve, perhaps somebody can help us. When we try to manipulate the point’s display properties (such as markers, on/off point’s number, elev & desc), after we select the display properties routine from the pull down menu:

Command:

Points to Modify (All/Numbers/Group/Selection/Dialog) ? :

If we select “All” the program doesn’t respond anymore, sometimes after around 3 or 5 minutes comes back and it gave us the next screen, this routine didn’t take that long before in LDD 2007. Any idea will be really appreciate.

Thanks

Shouldn't have that sort of trouble unless your computer(s) just isn't up to spec for '09.

 

First compare your computer specs with the requirements for '09.

 

Second maybe uninstall both, run a registry cleaner, then reinstall only '09?

Greetings all,

I don't know if i'm just being thick or have not used AutoCAD as much and regually as the rest of you all but i have read this thread a few time and still can't do it.

when i type in points in the command line i get an error.

I am looking to export "points" symbolized as a node, with an easting, northern and elevation, into an XYZ file (csv or txt). I use to do this sort of thing regually as a surveyor but have forgotten how to do it, this was using 2004 eddition i now use 2007 version. I think it was a simple solution not a "lisp" file as never heard of one of them. Some times there is 10 sometimes there is 10 000!! in which case i use a DXF backcloth and set out that way but want to get more accuracy and have a "paper trail" for my setting out.

 

All help much appreciated

Are you using Civil 3D, LDD, or plain AutoCAD?

 

If plain AutoCAD you'll probably need a lisp routine to do this. The particular routine may depend on what kind of point objects are in the drawing-AECC points, block with attributes, etc. What does the "list" command report for a point?

I'm using normal AutoCAD, the list command provides the below details.

The "point" are taken from using the "measure" command on a polly line to produce a node every set distance for setting out.

 

cheers
