Alignments and projects
Alignment ManagerDefine the project alignment from CAD curves, manage its segments and stations, then draw chainage, annotations, lanes and right of way from it.
Station NavigatorJump the view to any station of the active alignment, typed in metres, km or 20 m stations, and read station, profile and lat/lon at a picked point.
Road markings
Area Marking: 1 FlowDraw a one-sided zebrado along one reference line: angled stubs at a fixed spacing, studs, a trim reference and a live preview that redraws on every change.
Area Marking: 2 FlowsFill the gore between two converging or diverging lines with chevron or diagonal strips, studs and channelising lines to the norm, with live preview.
Area Marking: 3 FlowsDraw the zebrado of a three-leg junction island: white chevrons where flows run together, yellow hatching where they oppose, with studs, trims and live preview.
Area Marking: LinearDraw a linear zebrado along a centreline: V-shaped chevrons of constant width between two offset edges, four patterns, studs, delineators and a live preview.
CrossingsDraw a pedestrian or cycle crossing across a road width line: zebra stripes, black contrast, stop lines, give-way teeth, lane lines, legends, live preview.
Crossings (simplified)Draw a UK zebra crossing to TSRGD from two points across the road: white stripes, optional black contrast, give-way lines and stud lines, with live preview.
Marking StripDraw road markings from parametric definitions: pick one from the library, apply it on a base line and get layers, widths and dash cadences automatically.
Parking BaysLay out rows of parking bays from a base line: width, depth, angle, back and front styles, numbering, quantification blocks, pictograms, text and zebra fill.
Distance MarkerInsert distance-marker blocks along a road at a fixed interval, with the Divider Assistant opened pre-configured for markers: block output, 10-unit spacing, 270° rotation.
CAD utilities
Divider AssistantWalk a path and place points, blocks or a repeated geometry at regular stops, or cut the path into pieces. Fixed spacing, equal divisions or a list of distances, with offset, rotation and live preview.
Divider Rectangle AssistantDraw rows of rectangles that follow a path: checkerboard or zipper cells on two marking layers, with width, height, lateral offset and a live preview.
