Left/Right Sample Profile not Honoring The Gutter

[ToddRogers-WPM]

When creating a profile with right/left samples, the sampled profile does not show the gutter when crossing an intersection.  If you do a quick profile of the area, it shows the gutters.  See images below...

Same area with a quick profile...

Can you post up the drawing?

Which alignment? What station?

[ToddRogers-WPM]

All of the areas where there is a crossing street.  It's the centerline alignment sampling 30' right and left, but it's just a straight line when it crosses over a street.

I can confirm the results you are seeing and it appears to be a bug to me. Have you tried it in 2013?

[ToddRogers-WPM]

Yep.  Same result.

[BrianHailey]

I think it has something to do with the curves. If I create an alignment from just lines in the same area, it works just fine.

[ToddRogers-WPM]

Yeah I did that too.  Pretty crappy.

I tried drawing a simple polyline on the profile view using the SSE transparent command.  It looked OK, so then I created an offset alignment, cut a surface profile on that and then superimposed it back onto the centerline profile view.  That looked fine also, so it's a workaround for the moment at least.

Well isn't that special.  Same problem here.  Did you create a support request with Autodesk?

Wait a minute - was this drawing originally created in 2013 or 2014?  Is it possible that the round trip from one version to another and back again is a problem?

No round trip issue.  The customer uses 2013 and I did a WebEx with them and saw the issue.  Had the customer send the drawing to me and same thing happened in 2014.
