Use the intersection creation and naming settings in the Edit Feature Settings - Intersections dialog box to change intersection-related settings before you create intersections.
For example, before creating an intersection, you may want to specify the default frequency for inserting assemblies along tangents, curves, or spirals. You may also want to set default parameters for curb returns, widening, or curb return profiles.
If a closed lock icon
is displayed in the Lock column for a property, the property is locked at a higher level of the Settings tree. It cannot be changed at this level.
If you change a property value, a check mark
is displayed in the Override column. This override is also noted in the property table for related objects higher up the Settings tree, where an arrow is displayed in the Child Override column.
