Projections Tab (Profile View Properties Dialog Box)

Use this tab to edit the elevation or style of a projected object, or to remove or add projected objects.

Selecting the Projection Properties command opens the Projections Tab of the Profile View Properties dialog box.

If no objects are projected in the profile view, then this tab is not displayed in the dialog box.

Specifies the names and categories of objects that are available for display in the current profile view. Click to add or remove objects in the profile view.

Note: Multipurpose Projection Styles are used for AutoCAD objects. Each Projection Style includes settings for all types of AutoCAD objects that can be projected. Autodesk Civil 3D object styles control the appearance of Autodesk Civil 3D objects that are projected. Points use the point marker style. Feature lines use the feature line style Profile and Section tab settings. Survey figures use the figure style Profile and Section tab settings.
