VCL alignments

All defined alignment objects created in the Trimble Business Center software and exported into the VCL design are displayed and can be selected in the software. The alignments can be used as reference lines, selected in the stakeout feature to stake a station and offset location, and in the COGO features.

Unlike with PRO files, selecting an alignment does not automatically select the surface associated with that alignment. You must manually select the surface you want to use via the Surface option.

To toggle on/off the alignment data visibility, use the Corridor map options setting (see Map Options: Design tab) or select/deselect the design layer the alignment is on.

The tap-and-hold menu for the VCL alignment gives you the option to stake a location (station and offset) from the alignment or select the alignment as a reference line.
