Stopping Sight Distance Changes when XREF'D


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just like usual ran an existing and proposed ground profile for a standard road. In my base plan the SSD is 172.85' When I XREF the profile into another drawing the sight distance has changed to 2,490.22. I checked to make sure the scales are the same, they are. Any other ideas? I am really stumped on this one. As always, thanks for any and all help.

 

Regards,

Scale is one thing, are the units the same? Are you measuring this distance, or is an associative dimension changing? If measuring, are you in paperspace or modelspace?

They are the same
Whups, you came back while I was editing my prior post. Take another look.

Are you familiar with the -dwgunits command? If so, do the insert units match the drawing units?

Wait,:ouch: I just realized I am messing about in C3D, where I have no experience. :facepalm: I am stepping back to let the experts take a hand.

UNITS command they are both set to: Unitless

DWGUNITS command they are both set to: Feet

EDITDRAWINGSETTINGS command they are both set to: Feet

EDITDRAWINGSETTINGS command they are both set to: 1"=50'

Not sure if it makes a difference but under "Units" I always have it set to decimal

and have Insertion scale set to feet.

This, unfortunately, did not fix the problem
