I have two cl's that run close to one another. One is for the cl paving and the other is cl construction (cl row more or less). I need to merge the fg cl paving into the cl construction profile. Is there a way to superimpose, or import the fg cl out of one profile into another and still be able to label the vertical curves and tangents, etc.?
The cl construction profiles contain [horizontal] jogs, or kinks, in them and that needs to be considered in this process. The cl paving is straight (without [horizontal] jogs or kinks).

You will have problems with the stationing if the kinks are not taken into account between the two. Or you will need a station equation wherever the kinks are. You could then just create a new profile right on top of the other one, but the lengths will give you a few headaches. You can superimpose the one onto the other, but you don't get your VC labels or any of that.
