Introducing Civil 3D 2009

Today Beth asked me if a line label like this was possible:
Since I know I have seen this in the default template (like the crow’s feet label) I said sure! It can be done.
But when I sat down to do it, the anchor points that I was looking for weren’t an option. For some reason I was expecting to have start and end as anchor choices.

I always rotate my Surfaces into isometric view so that I can make sure that everything looks right. In Land Desktop, I would change the color of any blown triangles, so that when I went back into plan view, I could see which points, breaklines or other elements might be causing the problem.
Civil 3D Surfaces don’t let you change the color of individual triangles, so someone on the DG gave me this suggestion- use a sphere.
The AutoCAD sphere works really well- it gives me a clear mark visible in both 3D and plan, and I can actually snap it to the problem elevation exactly.
Try it! (click the more tag for more screen captures)
