Hello,
I have some difficulties getting the side slope annotation to behave as I want. I am not sure if I have set it up poorly or if I am using the tool it the wrong way. I am using OpenRoads Designer 2020 R3.
If I remove any intermediate points and have the target in the same component as the source I get the side slope annotation as I want but not when I have them in separate components with points in between. I have a hard time explaining this so I took a few screenshots that can be seen below of the different template drops and the different results.
The first example, with this template I get the side slopes as I want:
The second example, here I only get side slopes on the outer slopes in the cut section:
Is there some workaround or have I set up the side slope annotation incorrectly? I am happy to add any other screenshots or files needed to evaluate why it's not showing correctly.
Regards,
John A.
Yes, this is one of several bugs with Slope Signatures and please log a SR for this. I have logged this several times.
Thanks for your reply Oskar. Your suggestion worked for me.
When I removed the feature definition from FIL_V, FIL_H, TB_V and TB_H I.e. all intermediate points between the source and target of the side slope annotation I have setup I get the annotation correctly.
This is a great workaround however I still feel that removing feature definitions to get slope annotation isn't perfect. If anyone out there has an idea of how to do this while keeping the feature definitions set on any intermediate point I'm glad to hear your solution.
You can try to remove Feature Definition from point: FL_V, FL_H, FIL_V, FIL_H, TB_V and TB_H.

While I am still figuring out annotation myself, I suspect that it may have something to do with the fact that the second template has closed components instead of a slope line. I think closed component side slopes do not label the same way. It's also possible that you have some sort of distance filter applied, so that segments less than a certain length do not get labeled.
