    Yes possible but only in Linemode,,, , create the Area string from Major option Area and Minor option 045/46/47 (which will allocate the areas by section set ) then in The LS generation input file ,, in section of string information extraction use that…
  • CR - Trimming Triangulatoin in MX (option 961)

    Is it possible to extend option 961 (trimming triangulation)? I would like to have control over the length of the triangulations. If I reduce the maximum length of the triangulations, I get better results (without making a boundary). With…
  • MX Draw Command Macro in MX SS3

    Having installed MX SS3 I now have to go back and work on a project that was initially developed in SS2 and all input file based. The cross sections are generated by a command macro provided by the local road authority (who are still on SS2) and that…
  • Re: [MX V8i SS2] Topsoil strip with linemode

    Hi Mark, In an answer to point 1 - in the extreme situation, with this method when I had no survey points in the design boundary, the topsoil strip model is empty. The survey triangulation had of course triangles in this area but can't be trimmed to…
  • [MX, linemode] Intersection with triangulation - slope defined as extension between two existing strings

    Hallo, Does anyone know any smart way to create an interface connection (in linemode) to intersection with triangulation (TX00), in which the slope is defined as an extension between two existing strings. In short I meant as a hybrid of functions Interface…
  • MX Drainage on Longsection

    Hi, In the linemodereference is a lot of information for displaying a drainage network on longsections, crossections and planviews. The only problem is that you can only use MX Drainage to enter a drainage network. The produced models are not of…
