Reversing Alignment Sub-Entity Direction

Product Documentation
Intermediate

Reverse the direction of a fixed, unconnected line or curve entity.

This command works only on fixed entities that are not part of the solved alignment geometry. To reverse the direction of the entire alignment, use the ReverseAlignDirection command.

See Reversing an Alignment Direction for more information.

When you add an alignment sub-entity to an existing alignment, the sub-entity direction is determined by the direction in which it was drawn. If the sub-entity direction is different from the alignment, the sub-entity cannot become part of the solved alignment geometry. The sub-entity cannot be included in the alignment stationing or labeling unless its direction matches the alignment’s.

  1. Click the alignment. Click Alignment tabModify panelGeometry Editor.
  2. On the Alignment Layout Tools toolbar, click Reverse Sub-Entity Direction.
  3. Click the alignment sub-entity in the drawing window.
