To Edit Sample Line Settings

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

To change settings for a specific command, use the Commands collection in the Sample Line collection.

The default styles and name format settings for sample line 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 Sample Line collection level and the Command collection level affect only the specified level. The drawing level settings are not changed.

1. In Toolspace, on the Settings tab, right-click the Sample Line collection. Click Edit Feature Settings.

   In the Edit Feature Setting - Sample Line dialog box, note that appears next to the settings for default styles and default name format, marking them as specific to sample lines.

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 - Sample Line dialog box, click OK.
