Editing Civil 3D Feature Line Geometry using "Fit Curve" & "Smooth"

[@louisewu2756]

Thank you, Jeff! I have been watching your videos for a couple of years, and I think you are the best! Thank you so much!

You are very welcome

This works for 2D polylines as well. Thank you so much for this! We receive mapping from other programs and the lines are a series of millions of vertices connecting tiny straight lines. Using PEDIT-Fit first, and then FitCurve, this cleans up those lines brilliantly!

You can not create an arc with different elevations at random points using any of AutoCAD commands (line, polyline, arc, circke or 3D polyline). However, the method as suggested in your comment will work only when working on a flat plane.

Whenever I try to update stm file in civil 3d, all manholes delete automatically and size pipe doesn’t change and it doesn’t update.

Sir Jeff Bartels, ....I have vertical profile data in text file. So, We can make vertical profile line from file data. Is it possible, how?.... Kindly share us about its.
