Letters Appearing at PTs and PCs When Viewing Horizontal

Whenever I view a horizontal alignment, I notice there are "A"s and "D"s displayed at the PTs and PCs (see screenshot below). I don't want them displayed and am having trouble pinpointing their source. I tried playing around with the settings in the named symbology and style managers, but can't determine where they're coming from. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Colin

  • Assuming you are using some flavor of InRoads. Are you using the View Horizontal Annotation or just View Active Horizontal?
    These come from the XIN - possibly from the default style. Check on the View Horizontal Annotation dialog box, the Styles tab. Here, each point type can be assigned a style. If you change the style in use so that the font used is Civil, which I think is one of the delivered InRoads Fonts, you will get triangles or circles, both with smaller inscribed circles, centered on the insertion point. Note there are also two checkboxes for changing some of the point symbology behaviors.
    Finally, there is a new setting that allows the display, annotation and stationing of alignments as drawn and edited. There are other posts about how to make it work - some of these settings can affect how that setting operates.

  • Thanks caddcop. The styles tab of the View Horizontal Annotation helped direct me to the styles that were causing the letters to display. I then updated those styles so that circles and triangles are used instead. Thanks again
