labeling % slope and distance to feature lines
labeling % slope and distance to feature lines
(OP)
labeling is pretty straight-forward, but here's what i am trying to do:
i may have a feature line with 4 or 5 vertices. after i extract the elevation from a previously built surface, i want to set up a style that will pick the Z for the very first point, Z for the very last point, divide by the overall length and return the slope, and also the overall length. i tried setting up an expression but it treats the portion of the feature line between every two vertices as a segment and returns the slope for all segments individually, that i do not want. any suggestions appreciated.

RE: labeling % slope and distance to feature lines
Ok are you using civil 3d, because I don't believe AutoCAD can do that. A lisp routine could do that calculation, with user selecting the 3dpoly(?) and a label location.

I just saw a similar routine, it may even work but with extraneous pipe information. With a little editing it may do the job.
