    Question Reversing Pipe Labels?

    Hello all,
    Whenever I draft a sewer pipe Autocad likes to label the pipe in this format

    ### LF @#% OF #" SDR-26
    This format reads badly and I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to reverse the slope and pipe type so it would read

    ### LF OF #" SDR-26 @#%
    It doesn't seem apparent in any of the help info I've read. And, I'm not sure if its even possible. Any help would be appreciated.

    Are you using a vertical version of AutoCAD or third-party software to do this?

    Please note that I have moved this thread from the AutoCAD 2006 General forum to this one. I believe it would be better served here.

    Thanks

    I am running LDT/Civil Design 2005 and I have had the same result with Pipeworks. I know of no way to rearrange the pipe labels as you describe. I did get the opportunity to talk to one of Autodesk's Project Managers for the Civil "Vertical Products" at AU 2004 (one of the advantages to going to AU)...I got the impression that this issue would be addressed with pipe functionality in Civil3D. I haven't been able to dig into Civil3D yet...Has anyone worked with pipes in Civil3D yet? I'm interested to know how pipes work in the latest release.

    Pipe labels in Civil 3D 2006 can be formatted and organized in pretty much any way you could possibly want.
