Title: Civil 3D - single alignment label with curve info, PC, PT, PI stations
Post by: alanjt on March 25, 2016, 11:56:09 AM

Is it possible to label a curve within an alignment to also include PC, PT, PI stations, like ROW maps are done?
See attached...

Thank you, Michael. I'm pulling my hair out with this one.

EDIT: Beat me to the response. Checking now.

Michael, you are awesome. Thank you.
I was looking at general curve labels, and not thinking about alignments.  :uglystupid2:

Alignment Labels generally, have been invaluable to me lately; I can even 'grade' an entire site (lots, finished floors, etc) using nothing but an Alignment + Profile + Station Offset Labels w/Expressions.

That said, the only 'gotcha' I've found to-date, is when labeling Profile data in plan view via Alignment Labels - specifically a symmetrical Vertical Curve's PVI + High Point, as example - they list the same Elevation, even though the Crest info (in Profile View) correctly shows them as being different.
