In Civil Site Design V24.10, the Design Data Form has undergone some ergonomic improvements and seen the addition of a new Design Variation – Offset by Polyline.
Users can now double click in the entry fields to add a new entry. and we added a Recalculate button at the top of the form to recompute all Design Data Form entries. This is very useful if edits are made to polyline and/or alignment geometry with the form open – currently recalculating required an edit to the form entries to generate the Add/Update button.
Yes, a new Design Variation – Offset by Polyline. If you have used Offset by Alignment / Match Code to Alignment, then you will already be familiar with moving a code offset to match a Civil Site Design or Civil 3D alignment. The additional benefits of this variation are:
- You do not need to create an alignment from your polyline to match an offset
- Additional offset distance values can be applied giving you flexibility to offset from the polyline
- With the Max offset from CL check, you can search within a specified range
- The Offset Method option of nearest or furthest can be applied when the polyline is found multiple times at a single cross section
Civil Site Design V26 is packed with powerful improvements designed to enhance speed, control, and usability across CAD environments. Whether you’re working in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, or BricsCAD, this release introduces tools that streamline core tasks and give users more flexibility in how they design, manage, and export data. Faster, Smarter Point Cloud Handling Working […]
Civil Site Design V26 introduces support for IFC 4.3 export, giving users a powerful new way to share detailed 3D models with full classification and geometry data. This enhancement allows designers to export corridor models, road elements, and subgrade components as fully structured, BIM-ready files compatible with a wide range of IFC viewers and […]
A new feature of Civil Site Design V26 is the Best Fit Alignment command. This command is available to AutoCAD and BricsCAD users and allows you to create an alignment based on Cogo Point or polyline data. When the command is run, the Best Fit algorithm analyses the Cogo Points in the specified Point […]
One of the exciting new features in the Civil Site Design V26 and Stringer Topo V26 release is the Surface from LAS command. Often LiDAR and point cloud data is saved as a LAS file, which previously required interpreting in another software prior to being imported to create a surface. This new command allows you […]
