*** My alignment doesn't create offsets 😢😢😢 ***

Hi every body,

I have a 500 km alignment but when I want to create 3250 m offsets it doesn't allow. The alignment just allows up to 190m offsets. What's the reason?

How can I solve the problem?

I need this offsets ranges due to my base map scale.

I also attached the file

I'll be so appreciated if somebody could help me 😢

Hi @s.sajjad.jafari,
"The alignment just allows up to 190m offsets. What's the reason?"
Because most of the curves are 200 Meters. You can't offset an inside curve more than its radius.

500km alignment....wow that's big.... and 3250m offsets too.!!!! What are you designing?

Like the previous poster noted - the radii are to small at some locations.

 

Attached is an offset (polylines) of the alignment after exploding it and joining it back together.  The offset removed some of the smaller arcs.  These polylines may help you - maybe not.  You can make alignments out of them.

 

You can insert them into your drawing.

if the alignment is that balloon, your geometry maybe restricting the amount of offset
