I can't get any text fields to work with civil points that I create using the horizontal geometry tools. I'm using ORD 10.06.00.38. My end goal is to create a text favorite then an annotation group for a particular point feature definition. I want the…

Good Morning, I'm working on doing some fine tuning on our workspace and realized that there is not currently a utility to convert Annotation Group XML files to Excel, similar to the other migration utilities. It would be helpful to have such a converter…

I'm trying to create a 200' scale alignment label. I've set the text dimensions to 0.06 such that when the annotation scale is 1:200', the labels would be 12'. In one dgn, this worked and produced desirable results. However, when I tried to replicate…

Hi, is ther a way to annotate the superelevation in plan? mainly superelevation cross slope variation. We have the colored band but I would like to show the crossslope more preciseley. I know the superelevation section can have a linear feature definition…

Is there a way to annotate automaticaly the intersecting point (crossing feature) in the profile? Idealy station, feature name, description. I know how to display a cell, I know the use of place label to do it manualy but I would like to do it through…

Hi, I am using MX SS4. I have the Tip file modified for SS4. Very often when i load a tip file from draw -> Annotation, the Tip file does not load. I have tried loading different files plan, Profile and CS tip files, It does not take. I have created…

I have change my Text Styles for "Station Labels Major" to have the text mask applied. When placing text the masking works perfectly, however when using the "Annotate Element" command it places "Annotation Cells" and the text mask does not work at all…

Hi, I'm annotating the cross slopes of the proposed surface and the values are off by 0.01%. Rather than 2.00% and 5.00% I'm getting 2.01%, 1.99%, 5.01%, and 4.99%. Has anyone had this problem before and found the solution? I'm using InRoads SS2. …

Hey everyone, I am working on designing a sanitary sewer line through a site. I have the line made and the profile works fine. After I made my sheet to show the profiles for the sewer, the information that would come from annotation is missing. The reason…

This is happening on the latest 2 versions of SS4. In our cross sections, we are having the point ('X') disappear which compromises our ability to annotate. It is not all points in the cross section and often a cross section will display one point but…

When annotating an alignment I'm getting three different text sizes. The curve anno is one size, the start coordinates anno is another size and the alignment bearing, distance and stationing is a third size. See video Example 1.mp4 ( https://youtu.be…

In OpenRoads Designer, is there a setting to allow labels to be placed relative to the current view? Similar to how dimensions and notes have always worked in Microstation. I am trying to place a label (station, offset) in a design model with the view…

I have annotative cells drawn in from a survey field book. by default, my base drawing is set to 100 scale. I have this file referenced into a sheet file, set at a 20 scale drawing. Using the Print the Cells hare annotated, to the 20 scale drawing. But…

Hello, I am trying to do plan annotation by 'View Horizontal' option. I used the Civil.Xin preference file. I copied a preference set and i tried to modify them as per my requirements. I also copied the styles and Named Symbologies used in the preference…

I am having trouble developing the correct element templates that will be used for utilities. I need the utilities to be detected as a feature when using Corridor Modeling Annotate Cross Sections. However the feature definition for conduits does not…

Hi all, Does anyone know if wildcards are possible in the ORD Annotation Filter for properties like Feature definition, Feature name, etc? It seems that each feature name or definition needs to be explicitly defined and not even feature definition…

Trying to annotate a ditch with Station, Offset and Elevation information using SS4, in the same manner as doing this in SS2. (Geometry > View Geometry > Station Offset Annotation from the InRoads Explorer dialog). I am experiencing an issue with getting…

Hello, I am using InRoads SS4 version 08.11.09.878 and came across a potential bug. The project is utilizing native styles to handle the display of features. I am cutting sections through multiple corridors, and the crossing features (crosses, points…

Is there a "smarter" way of annotating our networks? So far I just push the annotate button and it spits out the node, conduit and lateral ID. I would like to dictate the font, size, rotation, top level, invert level etc. And dare I ask for an intelligent…

Hi, I'v a profile annotation problem. In some cases MXdraw/Annotate profile does not works correctly. Even centerline has geometry, and the mxtips file works in some other projects correctly, the result is very freak in few projects. No chainage…

Hi I am using inroads as software to design my profiles , the problem that the client want these profiles to be displayed similar to the attached picture which was done by geopak , is there is any idea that we can edit the preferences file (xin) In…

I am having an Issue with my horizontal alignment - stationing annotation. I am working in a projected LO and using the feature definition Geom_CL for my alignments. When turning the Auto annotation "True" the stationing generates approximately…

Hello, I need to annotate in plan a geometry string on curves with such content: preceding transition A value / preceding transition length curve radius following transition A value / following transition length [ A= XXX / L=XXX ] [ R=XXXX ] [ A…

Is there a way to create custom leader lines for annotating cross sections in Geopak SS3? Currently I am using cells that I created associated with the feature lines built into the template. They display in certain areas instead of the default "X". It…

Using SS4 - Open Roads. Have been using cross section annotation and was working just fine. Today nothing is working at all. Is there something that is may be "looking" for and not finding? Checked the template in the corridor and it seems fine. Any suggestions…
