Profile Labels and VP scale


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

 

I know that a previous similar thread has been done but not quite about the same problem (Annotation Scale VS VP Scale : http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=33459)

I tried everything that has been said about the scaling issue, but I think this was really intended for the annotatives.

 

So what I am wondering is, is there another way of having a VP scale at, let's say 1:1000 and the labels of profiles or alignment 2 times smaller than the style is generating, without having to change, copy, modify or create a new label style that generates labels 2 times smaller?

No. Civil 3D labels do not use the Annotative Scale, unfortunately, and they will always size based on the viewport scale. This has to do with the fact that C3D labels existed before Autocad had an Annotative Scale, and Autodesk still hasn't reconciled the features, so we have a logical disconnect in C3D's functionality.

I see that my problem is not from yesterday, but now I read today elsewhere than in yer reply, that indeed the civil objects were older than the annotatives.... Such a shame that Autodesk didn't do anything to remedy the situation yet. Hoping for C3D 2011... Not that much though.
