Where are you surveying?

    Have you tried the "Station Offset to Points" report? That works on an alignment and a set of points.


    You could also create points via the MEASURE ALIGNMENT option and set them up to pull the point descriptions from the alignment stations:http://docs.autodesk.com/CIV3D/2012/ENU/filesCUG/GUID-9ED65C63-58AE...

    You can find it in the TOOLBOX tab of Toolspace:

    As another note, the Sincpac-C3D STAOFF command is in the unlicensed (free) version.  This command is essentially the same thing as the old "Display Points by Sta/Off" command from LDD.  There are some other, neater and more-powerful commands in the purchased version of the Sincpac-C3D, but you can use the STAOFF command with no activation key (just download and install the software).

     

    The primary benefit to this command vs. C3D's built-in report is the ease of point selection.  For example, you can select a few points graphically on-screen and immediately see their Sta/Off in a list in the command window, with very few mouse clicks.

    • Hi Justin,

      The problem I'm having is that I want to only do 80 points out of 5000 points. I have those 80 isolated to a point group but don't see any method of either isolating just point group or range of point numbers.  Still missing LDD.
