Hello All,
This is my first post, so hope you guys can help.
Basically I produce a lot of long sections, I have managed to get civil 3D to automate almost everything, but there is one thing that can turn 5 minute edits into a whole day.
On my profile Views I have a topography band set this is a blank band set, and I manually put text in this band set space that signifies if my alignment is currently in a field or a road etc. The way I do this is by running an enquiry on my alignment finding the exact chainage my alignment crosses onto a field the chainage it exits the field and adding this to my band set. As you can imagine this is very time consuming especially if the alignment changes and the chainages of my dumb text become wrong and I have to go through the process again.
I was thinking maybe I could use parcels or boundaries but I can't seem to get the information to display on my profile.
