Option Description
Editable field The azimuth of the tangent in the start
point. This azimuth is used from the previous
element. The value can be edited.
Right or Left The direction of the cubic parabola looking in
the direction of increasing chainage.
Spiral in For a transition from tangent to curve.
Spiral out For a transition from curve to tangent.
Editable field Radius of the cubic parabola.
Editable field The entry radius of the spiral. The signs are
set by the system depending on the spiral
direction defined in Spiral direction. Availa-
ble when Use partial spiral is checked.
Editable field The exit radius of the spiral. The signs are set
by the system depending on the spiral direc-
tion defined in Spiral direction. Available
when Use partial spiral is checked.
Editable field Length of the cubic parabola element. Availa-
ble for Method:Radius & length.
Editable field The end chainage of the cubic parabola ele-
ment can be typed in. Available for
Method:Radius & end chainage.
Check box To create partial cubic parabolas.
Option Description
Editable field The azimuth of the tangent in the start

Right or Left The direction of the bloss looking in the
direction of increasing chainage.
Spiral in For a transition from tangent to curve.
Spiral out For a transition from curve to tangent.
Editable field Radius of the bloss.
Editable field The entry radius of the spiral. The signs are
set by the system depending on the spiral
direction defined in Spiral direction. Availa-
ble for Method:Radius, length & end
coords.
Editable field The exit radius of the spiral. The signs are set
by the system depending on the spiral direc-
tion defined in Spiral direction.
Available for Method:Radius, length & end
coords.
