Novapoint Road Library

Use this function to interrupt the chainage of the selected line (alignment or CAD line/polyline/arc) at the desired location and restart chainage from the interruption point.

• The first chainage after the interruption point is a user-defined value.
• If desired the selected alignment/line can be split into two parts at the interruption point.

Run the function from the following location:

MOUS_ICO Toolbar: Not available from Toolbar
MOUS_ICO Menu: Road > Draw Horizontal Alignment > Draw Chainage Break Symbol
MOUS_ICO Ribbon: Road > Draw Horizontal Alignment > Draw Chainage Break Symbol Draw Chainage Break Symbol

Command prompts for:

Pick baseline:

MOUS_ICO Select the alignment/CAD entity (Line/Polyline/Arc), along which chainage is to be interrupted and restarted.

The dialog Draw Chainage Break Symbol will pop up and a mark (cross line) will be displayed on the alignment.

• The dialog is a floating window, which allows working on other Novapoint/CAD functions without exiting this dialog.

Use the button Break at chainage < and pick the location from the drawing. The cross line moves according to the mouse movement. The chainage of the selected point will be displayed.

• Chainage from this point: Alternatively, define the first chainage to be given to the selected baseline after the chainage break point.
  • By default, the value will be the same as that of the value at the field Break at Chainage <.
• Symbol angle (grad): A pre-defined symbol will be inserted at the chainage break point.
  • Define the angle (grad) for the symbol.
  • By default, the symbol will be inserted perpendicular to the baseline at the chainage break point.
• Break Polyline: Mark this check box to break the selected baseline at the chainage break point.
