In OpenRoads How can I get slope pattern to show Cut or Fill?

Is tipically required on Civil engineering plans to show Cut or Fill grafically drawn, they should have a color for Cut and another for Fill, they may be used to representate changes of stratum by asigning a simbol to Clay,Sand or Rock. Normally are in a relation of 1-1(1 full 1 short) 100% of the slope length and another of 50% of the slope length for clay, for other materials may be a symbol like a tadpole.

The feature definitions assigned to the components control the display. You have an end Condition component for Fill and end condition components for Cut. Assign a feature definition which has a green line display for one and a red line for the other. Then for the corridor, you set the design stage to display components and it should give you a display of the cut and fill components and they will be the different colors.

You can also use tools in MicroStation to assign materials for rendering.

Hello C ,what you suggest it´s a good one but actually what i´d like to do is what SS2 used to do with the "Draw Slope Pattern Direction" but i want to know if it can be done with Open Roads Technology, it´s tedious to do linework for earth slopes but i don´t know how to do that automatically.

The 'Draw Slope Pattern Direction' command is still available in SS4 under the Drafting tools in the Native Explorer window. So this command can still be used by exporting the geometry to native and exporting the Terrain model to a DTM for the native explorer. Then you can run the annotation. Many of these annotation commands may not have been moved to the new technology because it could cause many duplicate processes and duplicate commands, when the output can be generated using the native commands.

Hi, have you gotten any further with this issue. I just moved to Open Roads Designer Connect Edition from InRoads and already miss the "draw slope pattern" tool. Utilizing annotation groups with feature definitions seems to work for drawing (annotating) the slope pattern along the edge of road corridors, however, I need to automatically draw the patterns between regular lines drawn in the 3D view. (ie. not a corridor etc.) It also doesn't seem to work for annotating side slopes generated with the "Create 3D by Slope to target" tool? Anyway, if you have any input, that would be great otherwise Ill keep trying :) Thanks!

Since this an old thread that has already been marked as "answered", you may be better off creating a new thread to ask your questions. Make sure to tell us which version of OpenRoads you are using, because there have been many releases, and they don't all have the same tools (or bugs).
