Attaching the Horizontal Alignment
Transitions to Cross Sections
You can use the Design Control dialog box to attach horizontal transitions to
the cross sections.
The alignments you attach can be transition lines, ditches, or right-of-ways. The
transition lines are attached to the transition control points you define on the
template.
Prerequisites for Attaching the Horizontal
Transitions to Cross Sections
n
In order to attach a horizontal alignment to the cross sections, you must first
define a horizontal transition alignment using either the Define From
Objects or Define From Polyline command. You draw and define a transition
alignment just like you do for a centerline.
n
For transitions to be applied to the template, the appropriate transition
regions must have been defined on the template using the Edit Template
command.
