    Default Having problems dealing with contours

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    I have imported some contour lines into Civil 3D. Each contour line is at 2'. Is there a way for Civil 3D to automatically take each line is set them at 2' increments? If not, I know how to go in and set each poly-line individually, but right now all I can type in are inches, so for 2' I have to type in 24. Does anyone know how to change this? Thanks for any help!

    Go to the Units format dialog and change the settings from inches to feet and check the settings in Civil 3D Style for the DTM.
