The Power of Transparent Commands – Profiles

All this talk of ribbons in 2010 but there is still ONE (technically two but…) toolbar still left for Civil3D. This would the Transparent commands toolbar.

When I first started Civil3D, I really did not understand what all of these were. I thought it would be good to just do a quick review of some of these handy little civil3d ‘object snap’ tools that I love the most.

The tools regarding alignments and profiles are what I used the most and quickly fell in love with. The following video walks through and shows some of the power of the profile transparent commands.

  1. I cannot view any of your videos, what application should I use?

  2. The videos are SWF Adbobe Flash files. Any multimedia player that will play Flash should allow you to view the video. Although I am not encouraging one player over another, the following link should work to get you a viewer.
