    Single Offset Entire Element command does not offset correctly

    Product(s): InRoads, MX, GEOPAK
    Version(s): 08.11.09+
    Area:  Horizontal Geometry
    Original Author: Andrea Garecht, Bentley Technical Support Group

     

    Problem:

    When running the command Single Offset Entire Element    on a Complex Alignment, it does not always offset properly.  Some elements are offset to the right while the others are to the left.  See picture below for example.

    The green line in this picture is the Offset alignment.

    Explanation:

    It appears in this situation, the alignment was complexed incorrectly.

    Solution:

    1. Run the Remove Rules   command under General Geometry

    2. Recreate the Rule with the Complex By Element   command.

    3. Verify that the arrows are pointing in the correct direction when selecting the elements:   Notice the arrow is pointing in the opposite direction.  In this example, the arrow is pointing in the proper direction.

    4. Rerun the Single Offset Entire Element    command and the results should appear correct.
