Use these general styles to control the display of AutoCAD objects projected into profile views and section views.

Within a style, the settings for the appearance of an object type in profile views are independent from the settings for section views.

The appearance of AutoCAD Civil 3D projected objects is controlled by styles for the particular object type: points, feature lines, and survey figures.
