Hi Stewart, I'm not really sure! I did a few tests a while back and concluded that the switch radius does get equivalated (i.e. the equivalent radius is calculated based upon the formula in...

Hi jpln, I have extracted coordinates at every 20m as a report and imported the same coordinates as horizontal alignment. In transition locations the imported alignment is not coinciding with the...

Rail Track SS4 uses the same Regression functions like SS2 - so the Tool Bars are at the same place. Just enable Multiple Horizontal and Vertical Regression in Add Ins.

As shown in the attached image, i got one CAD file with this type of proposal. These lines are (Magenta colored lines) designed in MX software. Here the curves are widened to maintain concentric...

Sorry no picture attached. yes it is common to have widening in curves. You can parallel alignments with offset using Rail Track. Arcs are concentric, straights are parallel and transitions are...

What is the offset? When displaying the alignment (View geometry) the tolerances set in Project>Options are used. So check the one you are using. Also when doing the report decimals are also...

In MX or Rail Track you can't create a true geometry element that is a linear offset of a clothoids to introduce the widening. It is a long time since I last used MX but as far as I know MX, by...

Did you use General Geometry from the Civil task bar? There you should find the export/import from file as well as import from Memory. As Hubertus said, "Import" allows you to import from ALG.

Could you provide a picture? Secondary Alignment purpose is to change the direction of calculation since the secondary alignment is found.

Thanks for your prompt reply, But the offset is 300mm. I think this is not suggestible. We may face problems in future with this kink in spiral.

Unfortunately, it looks to be a bug where the LLS annotation doesn't honor the fixed offset setting

Aw well Its not a huge hassle to move the LLS point down inline with my turnout annotations. Is there any chance this could be addressed in a future release?
