You can use alignment settings to specify the default behavior for alignment commands.
Settings are handled in a standard way throughout AutoCAD Civil 3D. You access settings using the Settings tree. Control settings at three levels: the drawing level, the object collection (feature) level, and the command level. For more information, see Understanding Civil 3D Settings.
Use the Settings tree Alignment collection context menu to establish defaults for all alignment commands. You can change alignment-specific settings at this level, such as Station Indexing and also override the drawing ambient settings.
Use the Commands collection under the Alignment collection to change alignment settings for a specific command. You can change alignment-specific settings at this level, or override the drawing ambient settings.
The topics in this section describe only those settings that affect alignment-related commands. The topics in this section do not cover the drawing ambient settings, which are also displayed in the Edit Feature Settings - Alignment dialog box.
