Correcting faulty alignment spiral data input

Partenheimer — Wed, 29 Aug 2018 19:59:45 GMT

We have a 99 segment alignment. At segment 32, a spiral-out, we accidentally entered cw (clockwise) direction instead of ccw (counterclockwise). Does anyone know if this can be corrected?

The best I can think of is to copy the alignment, shorten each alignment to and from the correction point, precisely place the end alignment, and then edit the two together into one.

Start over.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

TIA

add your dwg. If you have a solution for CW between to entities, I dont think its possible to have a solution for CCW, without the alignment looking odd.
