    Default How to show specific points in the section view on the sample line

    Hey all,
    Is there a way to show the point labels from the sample line section view, on the sample line in the plan view automatically, without having to measure and plot them manually?

    See attached pdf which shows the offset elevation labels in the section view I need shown on the plan view sample line.

    Thanks,
    TT

    Yes those would come from your CODE SET being applied to your corridor.
    AT the end of your DAYLIGHT object you would want to place a CODE SET style that would lable that information for you in plan view from your corridor model.

    I am not using a corridor because in this project I am removing and regrading an existing road. Is there another way?

    It would be easier IF you used a corridor as the lables would then be fully automatic and dynamic to design changes.

    Care to share any reason(s) you are choosing to not use a corridor?

    Generally corridors are used for road design, not road decommissioning. I don't need road crowns, ditches, road sections etc...

    there are ways to use them to still do that task...

    Corridors are NOT only for new roads, they do rehab pretty well, channels, drainage basins.

    I have even used them to do Dairy Barns, or Mini Storage slab plans.

    I could see where use of a baseline alignment and a pair of generic links you could get those catch points pretty quickly.
    Thanks for your consideration, in answering my question.

    I have tried to figure out a way to do this, but haven't been successful.

    thanks
