Hi,
I would be grateful for any advice on how to annotate the edge of pavement elevation in the plan and force the annotation to follow the corridor alignment station.
Please see the snapshot below. we can annotate the EOP elevation by "Feature Annotation" in SS4, also choose the corridor alignment to locate the annotation. But in ORD, we can create one "favorite text" and add this "favorite text" into the "annotation group" to annotate the feature line elevation (Z), but it always follows their own station (not the corridor alignment). I am just wondering is there any chance to annotate corridor feature lines elevation but following the corridor alignment station.
Best Regards,
Kenny
Kenny,
One way you could do this would be to create two Event Point Lists for the two Edge of Pavements. Create the points and use the centerline stations to snap to create the points. Then, create a new Annotation Group with a New Annotation Definition that places the Elevation information with Location set to Event Points and type in the name of the Event Point List. This process is a little more manual that what you are asking about, but it will put out what you are wanting. I logged an enhancement for the ability to select the centerline to annotate the offset elements along the centerline station:

Hi Holly,
Thanks for your response rapidly. if Bentley can add this function in ORD, it is really useful.
Regarding the solution that you mentioned above, I would more appreciate it if you can provide more details on how to process the Event Point List according to the centerline station.

This would be very useful - most often we don't care about the stationing "along the feature" because the feature is not the controlling aspect of the design. In plan view, everything we do is annotated from the alignment. I'm a little surprised (but not really) that this capability has not already been included in ORD.

As you mentioned above, I try to use the method of the Event Points List to annotate the EOP in plan. but it doesn't work. Please see the snapshot below,
- I created the Event Points List
- also add the event point list into annotation group management.
-Then add the annotation group into the feature symbologies.
Anyhow, it isn't work. I would appreciate if you can let me know where I mistake.
Thanks,
