    Default Profile Grid

    I am using the plan production tools to make P&P sheets. I like to round the last profile view to the next nearest major grid line. I have figured out how to do this but I can not make the vertical minor lines show up past the end of the automatic stationing. I am not sure how to explain myself. Please take a look at the attached files I think that will help explain. One shows the profile view and the other shows what settings I am changing to make my profile view longer. I just want the vertical minor lines to show up in the profile view automatically. I do not seem to have this problem when I am not using the Plan Production tools.

    Thanks for your time and help,

    I don't have 2008 here but it seems to work just fine in 2009.

    Par for the course I guess. I will figure something out...

    I've had this problem too. It won't create the minor vertical lines to the next major station when your profile ends between major stations unless you set grid padding to 1 major (which is actually one full major station past the next major station) or you set the user specified station to 2 major stations past the end (same result).

    The reason your PP sheets display correctly is probably because they are going from major station to major station on each sheet.

    Fortunetly for us, we don't display our minor gridlines so it doesn't effect us.

    This doesn't help you much but that is how i understand it.

    Good luck

    Maybe that explains why we walk down stairs to the nose bleed section of a stadium No really it could be worse. We could be called the mile high city or something lame like that

    Leadville, a fairly good sized town in Colorado, is at 10,000'.

    Yeah there are a ton of places much higher than Hermose SD which is where that profile was from. Some where between 3000 and 5000 is average around western SD.

    Just some interesting facts (ok, perhaps not interesting to most).

    I mostly work in North Carolina and sometimes at the beach where you might even find some negative elevations. Looks VERY weird on your topo to show something like that.
