    Transition (spiral) shift offsets

    I'm looking for a way to determine (and preferably edit) the values of P1 and P2, the offsets of the initial tangents into the PC/PT of the shifted curve. I've searched the forum and the help, and it's not in the (admiteddly basic) book I have either. Does anyone have any ideas, please?

     

    [Edit: OK, after double-checking,I just found Widening offset clothoid, but I'm still none the wiser.]

    Please use plain text.

    In the Alignment Grid View you can add a column to display P. The value is read only, but adjusting the length of the spiral will adjust the P value.

     

    The P value can also be added to spiral and tangent intersection labels.
