OpenRoads Designer, AutoTurn and Vehicle Tracking

Hi Mark Shamoun,

Would you be able to point me in the direction of some instructions on how to customize the ribbon to get the AutoTURN tab to show up? I checked in each of the variable sections (MS_MDL, MS_CMDTABLE_LOAD, MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST) and I do see that AutoTURN shows up in each of those respectively however I cannot find it under any workflow. I did right-click and went to customize ribbon and see that there is an AutoTURN tab that is supposed to load but it's not. I also see several other AutoTURN and AutoTURN Pro tabs as well so I'm not sure if I'm selecting the correct one. I appreciate you taking the time to respond and any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Kurt

Hi Kurt,

Do a ribbon search for "Customize Ribbon" and it will bring up a dialog you can use to move things around and change the ribbon.

There is some good info here:

Customizing Ribbons and Tool Bars - MicroStation Wiki - MicroStation - Bentley Communities

Hi Mark, I have a problem where using the ORD alignment for adaptive simulation only works intermittently (lucky to work a quarter of the time!). The adaptive simulation fails to show a turnpath over the alignment and it places the design vehicle at origin 0,0. It does this for even simple 2 tangents and a radius alignments.

Offsetting the alignment, dropping and creating a complex chain works but is a frustrating work around and removes the benefit of being dynamic with the alignment change.

Have you ever come across this issue and if so some ideas on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated?

I keep these in my personal.ucf and remove the # from the MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST variable when I need AutoTurn.

#Uncomment When AutoTURN is needed. Also use MDL "C:\Program Files\Transoft Solutions\AutoTURN 11\atcn.ma"
#MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST > C:\Program Files\Transoft Solutions\AutoTURN 11\AutoTURN.dgnlib
