Updated April 21, 2022


This article applies to:
  • RoadEng Civil
  • RoadEng Forestry

This article shows how to reverse the stationing of a design.

Although there is no way to reverse a design in Location after it has been created, it is possible to reverse a Terrain feature (in this case the Center Line):

  • In Location, export the current alignment to Terrain (Save As *.terx, no need to include Sections)
  • Select and reverse the Center Line feature (Feature Tools | Reverse)

  • Copy/paste the CL into the Original Ground terrain and save it. 
  • Start a new Location design with this feature as the starting alignment
