Problem with curve widening.

Offline Niklas Häggendal over 6 years ago

Hi.

I'm trying to create a widening of my inner curve with the Curve Widening tool in SS4. I've created a .wid file attached bellow and added a rule to my corridor that extends over the curve on both sides but still gets no widening of the curve.

Hi Niklas,

I had a similar issue a couple of months ago where Point Controls were not being created for one corridor (but were for others). Could you tell me if Point Controls are created when you run Create Curve Widening?

Thanks,
Sanders

What I can see no point controls are created. Should they appear like small boxes around the point in Cross Section view like they did in Roadway design under SS2?

Within Corridor Objects (as displayed in your image), select Point Controls, just above Curve Widening. If there are no points generated by Curve Widening, this may be the same behavior as I have seen before.

Yeah it's empty under the point control tab.

I've could make a manual point control for the widening, but since I have a template change during the curve I need to make some adjustments to my templates since the point I want to widen is at different offset from my center line and curve widening would be a nice tool to use.
