probably forgot to uncheck the option at the bottom of the 'Create alignment
form Polyline' menu that says "Add curves between
tangents".
To
get rid of curves on existing alignments - Right-click on the alignment and
'Edit alignment Geometry'. When the Alignment Layout Tools appears, choose the
icon that says 'Delete Sub-entity' and choose the ARC portion (not the
straight portion). It will make your lines into a no curves alignment after
you press
enter.
HTH,
Rick

that I know of. And I'm not sure why you would not want it to redefine the
alignment since the curves added stationing that was un-needed to begin with.
Unless I'm not understanding
completely.

I will have to redefines them. :(. I
just was trying to avoid that since I have a lot of my corrdiors assigned to
it. Thanks though.

Civil 3D's big thing is not having to redefine
things like this like you had to in LDT.
Right click the alignment and select Edit
alignment geometry. Click the Delete sub-entity button and just start
picking the curves to delete.
Better than that, hold down the CTRL button and
pick all the curves you want to get rid of, then hit the delete
key.

To add to Matt's reply, after deleting the curves
you will need to join the remaining tangents. Just extend the ends of the
tangents until they meet and they will automatically join. By the way, all the
remaining tangents are still part of the alignment even though they
don't meet, so C3D knows to connect them when they come
together.

Crap! I forgot that he was dealing with an
alignment from polyline. Good catch.
