    Can not snap when placing a GEOPAK Drainage Node

    Applies To
    Product(s): Bentley GEOPAK Civil Engineering Suite

    Problem Description

    In GEOPAK Drainage, within the "Location" details of the Node Dialogue Box, there is an option to place node by "Station DP". The intended behavior is that any node can stick to the cursor so that it can be located by a tentative snap to the correct position. However, for me the snapping doesn't work. The node remains glued to the cursor no matter how I try to snap to an element. My work around is to open active chain control, and identify the station and offset values for the node location. Then I manually type them into the node dialogue box. This work around is very frustrating and time consuming, especially when trying to iterate through several design options quickly. What am I doing wrong?

    Steps to Resolve

    Disable AccuDraw and the AccuDraw autoload setting, and then start GEOPAK Drainage and try placing an node by snapping.
