Change crossfall/ choose longitudinal gradient

Anonymous — Wed, 17 May 2017 12:55:47 GMT

Hello community,

I would like to change the crossfall of a road that I created. Is this possible and how? I managed to change the longitudinal gradient by right-click in the profile view and choosing "add intersection point of the tangents". Can I choose a certain value for the gradient or is it only possible to change it by moving the "point"?

Thank you for your help!

It would be helpful to know what type of road did you place in the model? Component road? If so, which style are you using?

If you would like to change the cross slope for the lane component for example, select it, and then in the Road Palette that opens up, you can key in whatever slope you want.

If you are using a regular design road, that uses a Style to place the entire cross section, you will have to create your own custom style.

When you create a custom style, you can add a lane component, set a width, set a inner height offset, and an outer height offset. That would allow you to create your own custom cross slope that way.

Hello @jeffrouse,

thank you for your answer. I'm working on a component road. My problem was that I didn't select the component but the whole road where you can't change the slope.
