Point: Delta X and Delta Y

Add a point that is located a specified offset and elevation from another point.

Properties

Specify the following parameters in the Properties panel.

Point
Point Number Specifies the point number. You can change the automatically generated Point Number value.
Point Codes Specifies the codes assigned to the point.

Click [...] to open the Expression Editor, where you can enter or calculate a value.

Delta Y Specifies the elevation difference from the point specified in the From Point row.

Click [...] to open the Expression Editor, where you can enter or calculate a value.

Link
Add Link To From Point Draws a link from the point specified in the From Point row to the current point.
Name Specifies the name of the link.
Codes Specifies the codes assigned to the link.
ApplyAOR

Specifies whether superelevation or cant will be applied to the link.

Note: The ApplyAOR check box affects how the subassembly is previewed in the Subassembly Composer and how the subassembly behaves when it is used in Autodesk Subassembly Composer. You can use the Superelevation tab or the Cant tab to define values for previewing the superelevation or cant effect for the subassembly in the Preview panel. You can use the Input/Output Parameters tab to add parameters that are brought into Autodesk Subassembly Composer when the subassembly is imported.
Miscellaneous
Comment Indicates notes about the point. Comments can be displayed in the Preview panel.
