I think this might be a re-iteration of the question posed by "civil3Dguide" on March 22, 2010 (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=116117), but I thought I'd rephrase it to make sure.
Say that you have a divided highway where the centerlines are not parallel. They have to be built as two corridors so that the slopes and distances all come out to be correct when the corridors are built (that is, perpendicular to each side's centerline). You end up with two corridors A and B each representing one side of a divided highway. No problem.
When you create your cross sections, you specify sample lines from one alignment / centerline, say alignment A.
Question: How do you get corridor B to show up in your section views that you created for corridor A?
Yes, a work around would be to create a surface of corridor B and sample it in section view group A, but you'd have to do that for each link to get them all to display (all your asphalt lifts, subgrade, curbs, etc.).
Is this really by design as "sinc" suggests, or is there a way around this?
