I spent the earlier part of this week at an Autodesk Developer’s Camp. For portions of three days, we were presented information on working with different Autodesk product API’s (Application Programming Interface). During the process much about the future of software development was discussed. Would you like to know more?

Quick reminder, the EECast worldwide tour continues today! I’ll be looking at a intersection design and cul-de-sac design, and how you can do both without ever touching a profile again (after setup of course). Register here, and check out the full schedule at left.

Next Wednesday, May 14, 2008, Joshua Modglin will present the next EECast! Please SIGN UP and SPREAD THE WORD! This is a great way to help us get to know you, show you live demonstrations of key Civil 3D skills, and introduce you to Engineered Efficiency.
This week’s session will feature an in-depth review of the EE ProPack Base suite of productivity tools. After the presentation, attendees can request a full working 15-day trial copy of the EE ProPack.

A reader contacted me a few weeks ago looking from a Set Rim Depth Pipe Rule for a structure. I never heard if he got it to work, but this is how I got the custom rule to work. Check the code after the jump.

I’m pro-customization, although I think some think it is a four letter word. Sometimes you have some work to do and Civil 3D can’t do the task out of the box. A recent poster on the discussion group has this problem. Here is quick way to make is job easier in creating a profile from points. While it could be done better, it should save him some time for the task at hand and be quicker than doing it manually.

A few weeks ago, I posted a little macro that extracted the XYZ values for polylines and saved them out to a txt file. This allowed you to then build a surface with a boatload of data with very little overhead in your actual dwg file. I tested it on 975,000 points and the surface built in less than a minute on a Cannon beta.
Well, now here comes something even better. Our good friend Rob Todd at Autodesk one-upped me and sent this little routine that creates an FLT file from polylines. With his permission, I’ve posted the routine. Read on to find out how it works, what the dvb module name is, and for an example of the output.
