Hello all,
While I am editing a horizontal geometry, I come across with the problem captured with gif below, which is inconsistent behaviour of alignment.
I am also having the same error in 2021 R1
Thank you.
Hi to all developers and community members,
As we are working on mountainous regions for wind turbine equipment transport, our horizontal geometries comprise many curves and need to be edited several times during design stage. We insert, remove or move the PI points also change radius many times on every geometry. Thus it is not applicable to draw the tangent lines first and apply arcs.
In our workflow horizontal and vertical geometry need to be edited iteratively and we need to see the corridor results instantaneously.
Up to now we tried to use simplify geometry command, tried to export and import the geometry (in every possible export format) just to reset everything, investigated the geometry objects to get any idea for the rules applied also tried to use "geometry builder editor".
Everything is alright up to any edit in table editor or before simplify geometry command. We want to preserve every other PI position during editing.
You can find the video below showing how the problematic situation occurred and what the problem was.
Looks like after the table editor modifies the alignment the rules of the alignment are changed. The "simplify geometry" was suppose to fix that. You could try and right click on the alignment and remove the rules then run the "simplify geometry" command.
Last resort:
If you open your "feature definition toolbar" and turn the snap on , you could snap to the circle center which will make a rule. Then use the circles as your PI control. Move the circle to modify the point.
