I think that Sincpac C3D added that command just for that. (because we cannot add a FL as a BaseLine).
Other utilities may be to extract a report of the FL with the format data of an alignment and profile.
The usefulness of FL as a BaseLine is you can apply assemblies in the grading. (in fact, I have read that PowerCivil can do this without creating a corridor).
Yes Peter, that is one application that would open up new possibilities. Initially, I thought that it would be very useful for intersection design curb return design because it's easier to design them with a feature line, but it needs to be documented as align/prof and would make possible future edits easier.
Feature Lines are possibly the single most powerful object in C3D. I use them in many different grading applications and as an analysis tool. It makes sense to have the capability to record the feature as an alignment and profile. It would help visualize the 3D relationship in a model and also facilitate checking. Many uses, so basically it seems like a major oversight to not have this capability.
I don't know if you still need this feature, but in the Dutch countrykit for C3D 2017 there's a custom tool available that does just this! And it's free.
@peterfunkautodesk , this idea is not a duplicated of a FL as a corridor BaseLine.... Currently, try to do this:
If you have a FL and not an alignment and profile, YOU CAN´T DO:
- A surface profile from that FeatureLine. (you need an alignment).
- A Profile View from that FeatureLine. (you need an alignment).
**Yes, you can create a quick profile from a FL, but quick profiles are not allowed to get label profiles..
Look at that we can create a corridor from a FL as BaseLine. This means that we can create a corridor surface ON the BaseLine, so we could create a corridor surface profile from there...... BUT.... we can´t create a profile view from a Featureline.. (in other words.. you can´t display the result design profile in a profile view, derived from the elevations of the FL).
The OP's request for was to be able to use a FL as a corridor baseline. That is what was Accepted and that was what was Implemented. While I understand the request to convert a FL to an alignment/profile, that was not what was asked for in this post.
It is impossible to close an idea that has multiple items in it, especially when the post grows after it was accepted.
