I created a 3d element using "Solid by Extrusion Along" The element represents a pipe with thickness. I have the element displayed while creating cross sections but the element does not appear. I created a solid pipe and it does appear. …

When I hover over a ditch, my 4:1 foreslope displays at 25%. So I attempted to adjust by right mouse clicking in the section window of roadway designer, bringing up the "display template" dialog and entered the following, trying to switch it to an alternate…

I noticed that in V8i, if I swithch from my xs file to my pattern line file and change the color of a pattern line, and also change my input file to only run xs on this one different colored pattern line, GEOPAK won't find the pattern line unless I exit…

Morning - I'm having a slight issue with developing some cross sections. I have a chain that is 2700+00 in length. There are roughly (10) segments on this chain that I would like to cut cross sections for separately (i.e. 0+00 to 24+00, 166+00…

I am running a 6 lane divided roadway with 3 lane frontage roads in each direction. I have gotten the mainlanes to work and draw the pavement as I would need, but now I am trying to add in the frontage roads as seperate shape clusters. The shapes are…

I am trying to get my ROW line to come in when I cut cross sections. I can get it to show up in Roadway designer by using display references. Does anybody know of a way to get these to show up when I cut cross sections? Ross

Geopak V8i 08.11.07.615 I'm running Geopak Earthwork on cross sections and am constantly getting the "XS-W-DANGPROP Proposed undercut element between points:..." The earthworks ran fine in Geopak v8. I tried unlocking all elements and adjusting…

When attempting to run proposed cross sections (through project manager), I have found that the define variables section will not accept files that have a space in them. Through trial and error I have found that files referenced elsewhere throughout the…

Hi, I'm having a problem with the sheet layout--the sheets are not being laid out at the such that the proper elevation label is lining up with the cross section correctly. i.e. the cross section is too low or too high in the sheet with respect to the…

I am starting a new project, and I will need to cut cross sections from my existing ground. That is not working for me. When I called Support, they told me that Cross Sections from Surfaces does not work in SS3. Is this really so? Is there another…

An issue came in today that I think will benefit the community to see troubleshooting techniques as we work toward a resolution. We are seeing discrepancies in some cases between what the modeler will show as a point offset value (or elevation) and…

I am a new geopak user and am attempting to label cross sections which I have cut using my existing ground surface and my finished grade surface generated using the corridor modeler. I have tried three different ways to label the elevations and offsets…

When Corridor Modeling and showing cross-sections I was having the issue of a certain surface feature always drawing on the active level rather than the level that it was supposed to as defined by an Element Template. This is supposedly happening because…

Does anybody know of an easy way to plot low points on X-sections, like ditch bottoms, on the roadway profile? Right now I use Active Chain Control and multiple View Windows to do it but it takes quite a bit of time. Thanks, Aaron

As I do my earthwork runs, I have some construction that starts and stops and starts again. I would like Geopak to read those sections without proposed construction as "Zero volumes". Instead it skips over them, carrying earthwork quantities through areas…

Team - I am trying to figure out how to label the ROW Lines in my cross sections that I generated from Corridor Modeling in Geopak. I have looked at the "Cross Section Labeling" tool and I can't seem to find how you are supposed to enter your…

Is there a way to get the corridor modeling XS labeler to label negative cross-slopes (i.e. normal crown) as "-2.00%"? In near-flat cross-slope situations it is very difficult to tell which way the pavement is sloping (other than comparing elevation labels…

I am trying to use GEOPAK SS3 for a production plan and here is my latest issue. I cut XS cells successfully in SS3. I then used GEOPAK SS2s cross-section sheeting tool while in the same MS session launched with "Load_GEOPAK_SS3=1" used. Nearly every…

When I try running the cross section labeling tool out of the Corridor Modeling window I get an error Run-time error '91': Object variable or With block variable not set I have the options to "End", "Debug", or "Help" "Debug" opens VBA…

Any chance of adding Cross Section Navigator to future versions of Geopak Survey? We find that the surveyors would use this tool often if it was included in Survey.

I'm trying to export the existing roadway cross slope from cross sections to an ascii file. I have the slope labeled in the cross sections but not sure how to tell geopak to write the slope information to a text file. I would like to the text file to…

I have come across a situation where I need to have the cross section sheets labeled as 1 of 100 on one portion of the tile block and as 300, 301, 302, etc. on each individual sheet in the title block in a different area. Currently in V8 it seems like…

Is there an easy way to get a list of all stations that have a cross section associated with them? Something I can put into a word document or excel spreadsheet? Geopak 08.08.03.24 MS 08.05.02.35
