Is mxroad can add curb, railing, retaining wall etc to cross section?
As a strings or micro symbol. Or is it possible autocad object converting and attach to cross section. Civil 3d is possible those. But I wondering if mx also can be.
Andrew, if you are using SS3 or above, you can do that easily using template drop through Openroads tools. Otherwise you can add MX Strings that will look like curb, railing etc
Dear Andrew,
I use inputfiles with macros to display cross sections. The macro contains the commands to, among others, add symbols to, or stretch them between, section string points or lines. It looks like this:

The file names (these are max. 8 characters, fields 2 and 3 are used) refer to your Mx macro directory.
