Parcels: A simple question, how do i get rid of them ?

A simple question, how do i get rid of them ?

I have 3 lots that have been removed from a 100+ lot development, and I cannot find where/how to remove these lots, help. I have tried deleting the linework & even exploding, so i have no linework, but still the labels persist.

I'm not interested in getting rid of all the lots, but the knowledge wouldn't be knocked back ;)

You need to erase the parcel segments that make up the parcels you want to delete.

I've tried that, even to the point of deleteing the surrounding lots, and still the text remains. There's no locked layers, nothing frozen or hidden.
No matter what I try the text remains, we even tried changing the layer the text is suppose to be on with the intient of hiding the layer without luck.

Are these parcels listed in Prospector?

Can you post a copy of the drawing? If so, I will take a look at it.

[Damian_E]

Yes the parcels are listed in prospector (once each).

I probably shouldn't post it, I might be able to get away with emailing the plan direct (1.8mb) though, if you'd be willing to PM me your email address

I was not able to erase those parcels either.

I ran an audit on the drawing and told it to fix the errors. It found and fixed 125 errors. The three parcels you highlighted were removed from the drawing but they remained in the prospector. I saved and closed the drawing and when I reoponed it the parcels were no longer listed in the prospector.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for looking into it for me

I forgot to mention that I ran the audit in C3D 2012. What version of C3D are you running?

[Damian_E]

We're also running 2012 :) so all good, it audited them away here as well, now I just have to remake the other missing lots

Create a Site - call it delete if you wish

move parcel to that site

delete site

I recently had some trouble with 'phantom' parcels, which prompted me to write an AeccDeleteParcels (http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=42585.msg477730#msg477730) Command, which uses Civil 3D's COM API to interface with the AeccXUiLand.AeccApplication Object.
