VFG and Matchline Labels not updating

[marybethh]

I've created a viewframe group and matchlines for an alignment with a start STA of 90+50.  I've now changed my start STA to 99+50 plus tweaked the alignment since creating the VFG and matchlines.  Now the view frames and matchlines are referencing the old stationing.  If I click on a matchline, the diamond grip is at the old station 900' from where the matchline is actually located.  Is there any way to update this without recreating my view frames?

Thanks for your help!

Welcome to Plan production tools....

The developers intent is that the sheets be created "after" all the design is done; leaving no room for revisions.

If you modify the alignment you have to redo the frames and recreate the sheets.

I continually question the wisdom of that application structure,and that is the only answer I have recieved. So hold of on paper space work till after the bids come in.

I don't know if that was the intent or an oversite. Either way, it's really annoying.

That wasn't a hunch on my part Brian - that was a quote from autodesk supscription support.

Thanks for your response.

I have the same problem.  And I'm absolutely not recreating the sheets.

I'm lucky in that I only have two sheets (one matchline).  The matchline is about 71 feet away from where it says it is (i.e. says it's at Sta 12+00, actually around 12+71)  So I moved the matchline to 11+29.  Then I changed the label styles to say "Matchline 12+00" instead of "Matchline <raw station>" 

This works because I only have one matchline.  If I had more, I would probably explode the matchlines and the view frames and start adjusting them manually.  That still takes less time than recreating sheets. 

Dynamic/connected objects are only nice when they work.

Is there any update on this issue?

Updating a vfg is a huge work for long alignments.
