Design Profile View station discrepancy

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I'm currently experiencing an issue with design profiles that affects labeling of profile features in the profile view.

As far as I can understand, the profile view is somehow set up to station from start 0+43.78' to 45+54.64'. However, the stationing goes all the way to about 55+11. I can't find the settings where I could change the stationing range to allow the labels to show on the profile view. Does anyone know the solution to this? I believe this may have been setup to that range by accident. See image below.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Select the Profile View. Go to Profile View Properties, Stations tab. Change from Automatic to User specified range. Set your desired starting and ending stations.

Thank you for your suggestion. Although this is not a profile view issue but a design profile stationing issue.

 

Update:

I tried deleting line segments after station 45+54, where issue begins, and redrew them with profile editor tools and now the labels are starting to show up. Not an efficient way to solve the issue but it works for now.

 

Alignment length is 55+11, and design profile drawn on profile view is also 55+11. for some reason the data is ranged to 45+54.

 

If you know of a way to change that setting somehow, please let me know. I appreciate your attempt to help!

I must have misunderstood your question. What you are saying is that the labels don't cover the entire profile length?

 

This is caused by one of two issues: 

 

1. Profile sub-objects don't connect. The ends might be close, but if not exact, labeling will stop.

or

2. A sub-object is drawn/built in the wrong direction. If the overall Profile runs left-to-right, but a sub-object runs right-to-left, labels will stop.
