AutoCAD & Civil 3D : My custom tips, tricks, workarounds and knowledge

Problem : Civil 3D alignment labels do not change next to scale change
Workaround : Select the non responding objects. Set them in another layer. They will adapt scale at once. Set them back to the previous layer.

Problem : autoCAD LT 2011, where is the SheetSet manager
Answer : Sheet set manager was included in the next version. No SSM for this version.

Problem : Plotting to DWF does not use the selected ctb file.
Cases :
1.Works fine when publish through SheetSetManager for Single Sheet printing but fails when trying Multiple Sheet.
2.Does not work at all when in autoCAD LT 2011
Solution for all cases :
Copy the desired ctb file to the default Plot styles folder.
Tools->Options->Plot and Publish->Plot Style Table Settings->Add or Edit Plot Style Tables...
Opens the default Plot Styles folder
