Annotating and Labelling Intersecting Alignment Stationing in Cross Sections

Annotating and labeling cross sections within ORD is missing the functionality to label the stationing of intersecting alignments shown on roadway cross sections. While feature names (alignment names) and elevations of intersecting alignments can be automatically labeled; the stationing of intersecting alignments, in respect to those alignments, isn't possible.

Attached is an example where sections were cut along a mainline and three other alignments intersect the cross section and are shown. The three other intersecting alignments can be automatically labeled with elevations reported. When attempting to add stationing (in respect to each individual alignment) the annotation does not work. Instead, only the station of the cross section in respect to the alignment used to cut the cross section is reported.

This is a known limitation of ORD, and was available in v8i (Power InRoads/GeoPAK). Looking for support to push Bentley to add this functionality to ORD due to numerous clients that require this information.

    Yes, this should be added. We have many projects with detours or nearby parallel alignments that having this option would benefit greatly from.
