Corridors can be attached in place of linear templates. There are limitations when attaching corridors to civil cells and there are advantages.

some limitations include... you cannot use multiple drops, key stations, superelevation, target aliasing, and clipping. Nor can a corridor be edited in any way before grouping a cell (this included linear templates). all these functions can be performed after a cell is placed however.

So the advantage is a cell can be placed that includes the corridor, and on placement it can be modified using any method typical to corridors

to answer your last question on how they are different, linear templates are corridors that have limited controls as opposed to a standard corridor

Ok, went through most of those trainings but they dont tell you how to get the corridors attached to the civil cell. I was able to figure out the vertical and horizontal alignment parts on my own so I already knew that. The examples are using linear templates. How are those different from corridors? Are they different?

Thanks to all for the links. I'll look through them and let you know how it goes.

Hi Dave, Civil Cells can be tricky, but they can also be very powerful. I used the following videos as a guide when I first started to learn how to create civil cells. Be sure to start with the first video, as they build on each other.
