Project Basejump

The Google earth import is no more with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013. But if you deals with a Raster Imaginary then it is very essential to import a Raster Image.

Autodesk Labs released a new add in called a Project Basejump.

With Project Basejump, AutoCAD Map 3D and AutoCAD Civil 3D software users can access Microsoft Bing data including aerial imagery, road, traffic, and other information within an AutoCAD environment.

Last day I came across a intresting question, One of my collague asks me How to delete a layers from default Civil  3D NCS template??

I look at to him, not a tough job for me ( I think so!!!!)

Hmmm. . .  Now the issue begin. . . .  when I open default NCS template and tried to delete it using Purge  ( As usual ).  . . Oh god . . .it's not deleting layer.

Now the simple task become a challange for me.

At last after long time digging I found the solution for this.

There is only one way to do it.

At command line type " LAYDEL"

Then it asks for selection or name, choose name.

After that it opend dialog as below.



In this dialog select layer which you want to delete and then say O.K.
