Converting from arc element to line, and vice-versa
Problem:
You have arc elements in your design's linework used to create complex chains/shapes. These complex shapes have associative elements such as hatching, patterning, dimensions, etc... To remove the arc from the complex chain/shape you have to…
How change order of points in chain?
I am using Project Explorer to upload my survey points in MS. So instead of using Chain Editor like I do in Geopak, I now need to use Manage Point List. But, whenever I try to use the point list manager, I am not allowed to edit the chain. See picture…
RE: Survey Chains
caddcop:
I'm not an active Inroads user. I use OpenRoads with Geopak. I use the linking codes all the time between C3D and Geopak. In fact being able to adopt our land development side workflow and coding system into OpenRoads has allowed us to double…
Copy chain parallel tool
Need a tool to copy a survey chain parallel. The copy process should also create points along the parallel element rather than a graphic element.
Thanks.
Linear elements edit tool
When using the edit linear elements tool it zooms out to show the entire chain being edited. This is an inefficient workflow.
1. By zooming out to the limits of the element being edited the operator has added more view steps to get "back" to the view…
GeoPAK ReadChain Error

Has anyone experienced this issue before?

Cory,
How do these chain of lines exist?
Are these line graphics in MicroStation? Are they complexed? You should be able to use the File> Import> Geometry> From Graphics option. Are they not complexed? You should be able to use the File…
Re: Gaps in Alignments
Thomas,
Sorry for such a long delay between messages. Could you please explain how to create a complex chain. I am only familiar with create/edit alignment as the way to build chains/alignments.
Thank You,
Michael…
Re: Gaps in Alignments
Michael,
The Create Complex Chain command is a MicroStation command. In the MicroStation Key-In field (Utilities> Key-In), enter Create Chain and hit Enter. Complex the graphics and follow the steps that Thomas provided (File> Import> Geometry…
