To Edit Section View Settings

You can change the default style and name format settings for section views. Settings are handled in a standard way throughout Autodesk Civil 3D via the Settings tree at three levels: drawing, feature, and command.

The default styles and name format settings for section view commands are described in this topic. Drawing ambient settings are described in Ambient Settings Tab (Drawing Settings Dialog Box).

Note: Overrides to the drawing ambient settings at the Section View collection level and the Command collection level affect only the specified level. The drawing level settings are not changed.
  1. In Toolspace, in the Settings tree, right-click the Section View collection. Click Edit Feature Settings.

    In the Edit Feature Settings - Section View dialog box, note that appears next to the settings for the default styles and the default name format, marking them as specific to section views.

  2. Expand the default styles and the default name format to see the current settings.
  3. In the Value column, click the entry you want to change.
  4. Click to open a dialog box. Modify the value.
  5. In the Edit Feature Settings - Section View dialog box, click OK.
