Description

The CreatePointsFromLabels command can be used to create Civil-3D Points at the exact location and elevation of Surface Elevation Labels found in a drawing.

Note: This command is not available in the 2008 and 2009 versions.

Usage

Type CreatePointsFromLabels at the command line to call up the Settings dialog shown below:

The lower portion of the dialog box contains the Point Creation Control, which summarizes the current Point Creation Settings.

Note that the Elevation settings are not available for this command, since the generated Cogo Points take their elevations directly from the selected labels.
