where shall i have to modify marco/input to get the vertical schematic in longitudinal section?

DRAW minor option 846, field 7 can be used to generate the vertical schematic from the geometry string (7=-34 or 7=-35 - two different styles are available). You will need to add the option to add this option. See the Help file for further details.

Hi Mr. Marnell,

Thank you very much for reply. I got the vertical schematic. I want to display the K value instead of Radius in vertical schematic and also i want to delete the vertical geometry details which are shown in the top of LS. Please help in where i have to modify the input.

Thanks in advance

See the following link for K value https://communities.bentley.com/products/road___site_design/f/geopak-inroads-mx-openroads-forum/88091/how-to-show-k-value-in-profile-by-in-put-files

You need to amend the macro to remove the lines which draw the vertical geometry details.

Dear Mr. Marnell,

Thanks for your reply. I did not get proper solution from mention link. The following macro i have used to get vertical schematic with Radius for your reference.

       #Draw Vertical Schematic Diagram
&VAD&809,HTPS
&VAD&846,&LG&,,V001,,&XS&,&YS&,-34,&XE&,&YE&

000    VAD   Vertical schematic diagram code                   000

Please help to write the macro to get he K value in vertical schematic.

Thanks in advance

Hari Krishna Palla

Here is an example input file that shows one method to annotate the K value. Please work through it carefully so you understand what it is doing, and then amend your macro to use the technique in the macro. I could not upload the file, so I have had to paste the commands instead.

// Some more notes on this workaround for anntating the k-value:
//===========================================================================
// MX always stores the M-VALUE in the g-string, not the vertical radius and
// not the k-value.
// Depending on your project settings, you can report the k-value, e.g. using
// REPORT,992 (string points), but the data which is stored in the g-string
// is still the M-VALUE.
// The MXExplorer for example will always show the m-value when you look at
// the points of the g-string.
//
// The relations between M-value, vertical radius and k-value are as follows:
// Vertical Radius = 10000 / M-value
// Vertical Radius = 100 * k-value
// k-value = Vertical Radius / 100
// k-value = 100 / M-value
// M-value = 10000 / Vertical Radius
// M-value = 100 / k-value
