Small Project, Small Budget, not a lot of room for R & D.
I am trying to come up with a template that can run along my alignment, locate the existing shoulder line (plan and elevation) and draw in my new, improved shoulder. There may be widening, but I'll cross that road when I come to it.
How on earth do I make this happen? Can I make this happen?
I can think of how to do it with criteria files, but templates are (to my brain) a very different sort of logic.
Start at center point at existing ground profile
Draw Skip to Plan Element
Draw Skip to existing ground surface
Start drawing.
I don't see any way to tell any point "start on existing ground". I see Project to Surface, but I must be using it wrong.
I'm at the crossroads of fighting to get a template (any template) to work and just drawing the darn sections by hand. That's not very helpful and it won't teach me a thing, but time and budgets don't always allow for time to figure out the "best" way to do anything.
