Draw Road Elevation Annotations
Use this function to draw elevation annotations along selected surfaces.
- These annotations can be drawn for desired section of the road model.
- These annotations will be inserted at the interval used for road surface calculations.
- The elevations will be read from the active road project.
- Primary requirement for this function is that, road surface calculations are performed in the module 'Road Design'.
- These elevations of the road surfaces are very useful for intersection design.
Run the from the following locations:
Toolbar: Draw Road Elevation Annotations
Menu: Road > Draw Road Elevation Annotations…
The dialog 'Draw Road Elevation Annotations' will pop up.
Project
- Project ID: The active road model and the active Quadri line identity will be displayed.
- The dialog 'Novapoint Project Settings' will pop up with the button 'Project ID', which enable to set desired project/model active.
- For further details on, refer the topic 'Project ID'.
- From/To Chainage: The road model's first chainage and last chainage will be displayed.
- By default, elevation annotations will be drawn for the entire section of road model.
- In case, annotation not required for the entire section, define the section at these fields.
Draw Selected surfaces with given chainage interval
- Mark the check box to refresh the list.
Draw Label
- The elevation annotations can be drawn either outside or inside the surface.
- Mark the desired radio button.
Draw as
- Annotations can be inserted either at the respective elevations of the surface points or at elevation of the drawing file (AutoCAD command 'Elevation').
- Mark the desired radio button.
- The label consists of a line and text.
- The mid point of the line represents the road surface point and the text represents the elevation.
Codes
- All the road surfaces used in the road model will be displayed.
- Select the desired surfaces, for which elevation annotations are to be drawn.
- Multiple surfaces can be selected using the key 'Ctrl' or 'Shift'.
