Description

The ProfileStationing command creates a profile based on the length of profile. This provides a method of stationing a pipe distance for a profile. This method of stationing is often used for pipe line design. Once created the elevation of the profile maybe utilized in the profile bands to represent the profile length as a station value or utilize it in the ProfileStationingReplaceLabels command.

This command contains options for naming the profile, providing a description, profile style, and a layer.

Usage

Run the ProfileStationing command and select the desired profile to extract a profile to represent the length of the profile. The following dialog box will then appear:

Type in the desired name of the new profile. Enter a description and select a profile style and profile layer.

Once you have all settings the way you want them, hit OK. The profile will be created.
