Hi Todd!

I´m in the same situation.. Couldn´t find any options for this.

Managed to get a square corner using point controls and aux lines.. But a lot of extra work..

I created a request for this tool in the OR Product Ideas, it´s open for votes now.

Thank you Mike, I have started looking for the PI setting as well. No luck so far, but I will keep looking and let you know if I find it.

Mark,

Thank you! Using a Linear Template and changing the sweep angle to 1 degree did improve the corner rounding. What about creating a squared off corner, not a rounded corner?

Thanks,

Todd

A similar rounding on corners was in the V8i InRoads corridor setting it was name PI Rounding Tangent. I am thinking it should be in the CE corridor settings as well, but not finding it.

Hi Todd,

Rounding on sharp corners is much better handled by Linear Templates. Linear Templates include a "Exterior Corner Sweep Angle" property that lets you control what happens in situations like this. Corridors are more suitable for linear applications.
