Subassembly Composer – Add “Real” Delta Y overrides for slope/elevation/width etc.

EDIT: You can download the subassemblies demonstrated below from link here

Currently the elevation and width targets override using “absolute” elevation or width.

The following changes would add enhanced flexibility to control key parameters in a corridor design.

This allows the user to define delta y/delta x/slope using a profile height.

  1. It removes having to code this as an expression.
  2. It also allows the custom subassembly to display correctly in layout mode.

So for example:

  • A profile with a elevation of 0.5 would make the slope of a link 0.5%
  • A profile with an elevation of 1.5 would make a pipe dia in a custom subassembly equal 1.5m dia.
  • A profile with a elevation of 1.2 would make the relative height of a wall 1.2m.
  • A offset target/profile with a width from cl/height of 3m would change the relative width to 3m

So rather than constantly having to try and find the correct elevation on the main profile. You can control parameters on a separate profile above/below the main profile. Similar to the Super elevation profile view.

What I Call “Dual Profile Design”

See below for use.
