I have two base lines that start at a specific station. one for example starts at 333+75.00 and the other starts 33+78.35.
I cannot get inroads to lay the stationing in correct. even it I start at a +50 station it goes 100 feet to the next station instead of 50 feet as seen in the example below.
is there a way to get inroads to start stationing at a specific station, and carry the correct interval to the station?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Have you checked the Station Lock ? It's located in the Power Inroads Explorer under Tools/Locks. I have had issues with this before until I check it. I think it should be on but if it's on turn it off, That should fix your problem
Idaho Red
so even with the stationing lock off it still annotates the baseline incorrectly... as you can see below I was able to start the stationing at the point I need but the tick marks and the rest of the stationing is still off....
Station lock should be on. When on, it forces the software to Station at even intervals - majors and minors as defined.
Post a shot of Review Horizontal Alignment that shows the beginning of the alignment.

Thank you, this seemed to be the problem, however the station lock was originally turned on. however after turning it off, and then back on, it now works.
Sometimes the buttons and the locks get out of synch and toggling them seems to fix that. Glad to be of help. Remember, Idaho Red was correct first.
