Plan/profile sheet

File setup

1. Create a sheet set for the project if one has not been created yet. See Sheet sets for more information.
2. Start a new drawing from design-start.dwt template
3. Save file as ProjectID\Design\ViewFrameGroups\VFG-51-pp-100scale.dwg
   1. View frames can be saved in the design file for smaller projects
   2. For longer projects, the plan and profile sheets may be separated into multiple drawings. This process keeps the view frames uniform throughout multiple drawings. A separate view frame group file does NOT need to be created if your project doesn’t warrant it.
   3. Generally a 1IN:100FT scale is used for rural projects, 1IN:40FT or 1IN:50FT scale is more ideal for urban projects
4. Annotation scale: 1IN:100FT
5. Data reference
   1. Toolspace palette > Prospector tab > Data Shortcuts > Centerline Alignments > 51 > Right-click > Create Reference...
      1. OK
   2. Toolspace palette > Prospector tab > Data Shortcuts > Centerline Alignments > 51 > Profiles > 51 > Right-click > Create Reference...

      1. OK

         Tip: It is important to add the profile before the view frames are created. The view frames need to “know” this information for later when the profile views are added to the layouts.

   3. Toolspace palette > Prospector tab > Data Shortcuts > Centerline Alignments > Lcl-Tuckaway Rd. > Right-click > Create Reference...
      1. OK
   4. Toolspace palette > Prospector tab > Data Shortcuts > Centerline Alignments > 47 > Right-click > Create Reference...
      1. OK
6. Double-click the center mouse wheel to zoom extents.
7. Save the file.

Review the view frame placement along the alignment.

Tip: Any view frame location changes should be made before profile views are made and sheets are created. Sheets are not updated if the view frames are moved after the sheets have been created, this is a one time operation.

There are multiple options for adjusting the view frames to the desired location before the sheets are created.

Option 1 - Shifting all the view frames

If the view frames are not created in the desired locations, delete them and recreate the frames from an earlier start station.

1. Output tab > Plan Production panel > Create View Frames
   1. Sheets
      1. View Frame Placement
         1. Set the first view before the start of the alignment by: checked
         2. Set the first view before the start of the alignment by: distance in feet

Option 2 - Create multiple view frame groups

Multiple view frame groups may created along the same alignment, each covering different segments of the project. This option may be helpful for projects with multiple intersection locations.

Option 3 - Use grips to adjust individual view frames

Select the view frame

• Circular grip - rotates the view frame
• Diamond grip - slides the view frame along the alignment
• Square grip - moves the view frame anywhere in model space

Create data shortcuts

1. Save the drawing.
2. Toolspace palette > Prospector tab > Right-click on Data Shortcuts > Create Data Shortcuts...
   1. Select the view frame group(s) that will be referenced into other drawings.
   2. OK
