I am wondering is there a way to include volumes (yardage), to show up when I draw sections? I also wonder is there a way to change my label end areas to sqyds or is it a must for the sqft?

I asked that question about a year or so ago, and I was told that they would add the section volumes in a future release. But, it evidentally didn't make it in the last release. As far as I know, there is no way to report the volumes on the cross sections.

Yes, there are options for "Calculate Section Volumes" and "Calculate End Area". There are also options for cubic yards.

As far as I can tell, there is no way of placing the volumes on the cross sections. I can label the end areas, but I cannot label volumes on the cross sections (unless I'm missing something).

Try going to the Area/Layout menu and then Area Defaults. You can add the option to label Sq. Yds. and remove the Sq. Ft. from the list. Let us know if this is what you're looking for. Thank you
