Lock Civil 3D Structure Leader to Any Location
Lock Civil 3D Structure Leader to Any Location
2/14/2019
Autodesk's Jeff Bartels walks through a trick to employ the Toggle Label Pin tool and a tweak to the Label leader to fix a label location for a Structure in Civil 3D.
From the Jeff Bartels YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
You have to do this trick a couple of times to learn how the mechanics work. This is a workaround for a common compliant about the Structure Label Style in the Dragged State.
Seems silly to have to add the leader vertex, but it forces Civil 3D to obey when coupled with a Label Toogle Pin property assigned to a specific Label.
As Jeff points out in the video, you can employ the Toogle Pin Tool to Labels in other views.

Autodesk's Jeff Bartels explains how to create custom Label Styles to display Linear Crossings in Civil 3D Profile Views.
From the Jeff Bartels YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
This is essentially a basic tutorial on Label Style creation in Civil 3D with a nod to Profile View and Section View Dimension anchors thrown in.
Jeff dodges the importance of the need for a planned approach to your styles both in name and in the systemic use of properties.

Autodesk's Jeff Bartels explains how to create custom Marker styles to display Linear Crossings in Civil 3D Profile Views.
From the Jeff Bartels YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
Autodesk's redefinition of the 2019 Marker style's Profile display system representation allows 2019 Markers to serve as either point locations or lines for Alignment crossings in a Profile View.
Reading Jeff's post linked above may help that mean something useful to you if you don't understand what a display system representation does and is.
As usual, Jeff dodges the importance of the need for a planned approach to your styles both in name and in their use of properties.
