Hello,
I am trying to replace an existing horizontal alignment with a new horizontal alignment that is an offset of a third element. The original horizontal alignment already has vertical geometry and a corridor associated with it. I have already tried the append element and complex redefine tools to no avail, as well as the key-in geometry element replace. I was unable to use the keyin Geometry Substitute. I get an "unknown keyin" error. I am using MicroStation SS10 08.11.09.916.
Thank you
There is no way to replace one horizontal with another. There should be....but there isn't.
You can copy verticals between 2 different horizontals and you can use simplify element to remove offset rules and make the offset element a stand alone ruled civil element.
You can use corridor reattach to reattach a corridor from one alignment to another.

Thank you for the quick response, Marc! It is greatly appreciated!
How do I copy vertical geometry between the 2 horizontals? That would be a huge help on its own.
I believe you might be able to do that with LandXML. You might need to manually edit the file to move the one vertical from the originating LandXML file to the target LandXML file.
