TRIA association in Vertical String Design

I do not understand what you mean by 'associate a triangulation' or 'to associate it the usual way'. What do you normally do? 

Hi Mark!

Thanks for replying.

If I need to design the vertical alignment of centerline of my project road, I see the profile of the ground underneath it by associating the tria of the ground underneath. If need to see the ground under a crossroad cutting across my project road, I try to associate (display simultaneously with my main road and main ground's profile) the profile of the ground under that cross road. 'Usual way' for me is to go the 'Profile Surface Details' icon in the 'Add IP Mode' window while designing vertical alignment. Attaching a snapshot for the same.

Thanks for the explanation. However, I do not have an answer to your issue - it seems to work fine on my machine. 

I would suggest raising a Help Request.

Hi All

we've just upgrade all our laptops to win 10 version 1803 and install MXROAD 08.11.09.879...we are getting the same here, we can't add any additional triangulation models or add additional profiles or associated string (advance panel) as the arrow is missing to allow pull down box for selection....this is very annoying when you have multi surfaces to use when designing...how can we fix this??

WORKAROUND: you need to open existing *MC20.drl file in /MXDATA folder add change/add the following.

Change the following:

NumofCuts=3

Add the following for surface 3:

Model3=TRI DESIGN MERGED

String3=

TriaString3=TX00

Sint3=0

SintOffset3=0

SintTolerance3=0

Offset3=0

OffsetVal3=0

Mask3=

Layer3=

LineColour3=1

LineStyle3=

Level3=

MLineColour3=7

MLineStyle3=0

MXLineColour3=7

MXLineStyle3=0

VBColour3=26623

MXRAIL3=False

MXRAIL_TYPE3=0

You may run into other weirdness, so keep your eyes open:
