Where’s My Feature Line Glyph?

Posted by Dana Breig Probert, EIT on 19th October 2007

Well things are getting back to normal around here.  Since they published that information that Baby Mozart is bad for baby’s language development, I discovered that I could put Prospector in front of archived Friday Webcasts and AU Online recorded Screencasts and get in an hour or so of work.  So expect to hear from me more and more over the next few weeks…

This question came up today and though I can’t take credit for solving it, I thought it was worth noting. I had no idea….

When editing a feature line you expect to see a PI glyph (little green triangle) at the vertex locations. But what if it disappears?

Does Size Matter?

Posted by Mark Scacco, P.E. on 19th October 2007

Earlier this week I posted a graph showing information comparing the time required to implement Civil 3D and the amount of outside consulting help the organization received.

In an attempt to get a better handle on the relationship between the two, I have created a short survey to gather additional data points.

If you work at an END-USER organization (read: NOT a reseller) please take this short survey. I’m asking the 50% of you that work for resellers to please not take the survey as this may skew the results.

After the data has been collected, I’ll post an updated graph.

Follow this link: Click Here to take survey

Thanks for your input.
