mcjohn Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I'm Using Civil 3D 2010 and curious to know how to properly add contour labels to a surface (of contours). When I go surfaces-add surface labels-contour (single or multiple) and select where I want my label(s) all that appears is a 'tick' line drawn through the point I selected. Selected, this 'tick' is called a surface contour label group in the properties panel. Using a template someone created for his company that I'm using as practice I am able to follow the same procedures and proper contour elevation labels appear. But when using the default template only a tick appears. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScribbleJ Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Check your 'Surface Style' in the settings tab to see if Elevations under Display are turned on and also check the layer that they are suppose to be on in the layer manager if the layer is frozen or turned off.

Edit the Contents of the Text and change the precision to 0.1 instead of 0. You'll also have to change the contour interval under the Contours tab of the surface style, if you haven't already.
