Label Curb/Flow Elevations

This command labels top of curb and/or bottom of curb (flowline) elevations with a leader along an alignment. The data to label comes from Carlson points and alignment is defined by a selected polyline. The program reads all the points in the drawing and then you select which descriptions to use the top of curb labels and which to use for the bottom of curb labels.

 

There are separate settings for the top and bottom to control the label prefix, suffix and decimals. The Tolerance setting is the maximum distance between a point to label and the polyline. The Leader Bearing determines how the Leader Angle is applied: Relative adds the angle to the alignment polyline and Absolute means based on the orientation of the screen. The Text Horizontal Offset Scaler controls the distance between the alignment polyline and the label. The Text Vertical Offset Scaler controls the buffer offset between the leader line and the label. The User Leader Entities option chooses between drawing the leaders as polylines or as leader entities. The Elevate Annotations setting controls whether the labels are created at their elevation or at zero.
