Point settings control how point-related commands behave.
You work with point settings the same way you work with other object settings in AutoCAD Civil 3D, using the ToolspaceSettings tree. You can control point-related settings at both the object collection (feature) level and at the command level. For information about how the levels of settings work together, see Understanding Civil 3D Settings.
Use the Settings tree Point collection context menu to establish defaults for all point-specific settings and to override the drawing ambient settings for all point-related commands. Use the Commands collection under the Settings tree Point collection to override point-specific settings or drawing ambient settings for a specific command.
The topics in this section describe only those settings that affect point-related commands. They do not describe the drawing ambient settings that you can edit at the Point collection level and the Point Commands collection level, even though those settings are displayed. For more information about the drawing ambient settings, see Specifying Ambient Settings.
