Sheet Views
Overview
The Profile Display system creates the profile view region of an improvement sheet and provides tools for easy manipulation of the appearance. The process involves attaching the ASE-generated profile drawing as an XREF, creating an array of viewports in a layout tab, adjusting the station range of the profile, and fine-tuning the visibility and position of each profile component (L2, L1, CL, R1 & R2). The entire process is managed via ASE Civil's menus and toolbars.
