These options are for modifying the vertical alignment of a road centreline, by deleting one or more vertical IPs (Intersection Points).

Centreline Delete IP button Delete a Point

On the Road Tools button centreline tools toolbar in a longsection window, click the Centreline Delete IP button delete point button.

Select a vertical IP (they highlight as you move the mouse cursor around the longsection view). Then click the mouse to delete the selected IP from the road vertical alignment.

Delete a vertical IP example

If the selected IP was filleted with a vertical curve, then that will also be removed.

The road alignment will be recalculated with the remaining vertical IPs (and the whole design will be updated with any knock-on effects of the change).

Centreline Delete Multiple IPs button Delete Multiple Points

On the Road Tools button centreline tools toolbar in a longsection window, click the Centreline Delete Multiple IPs button delete multiple points button.

Click two IPs, the selected points and all IPs between them will be deleted from the road vertical alignment.

Delete multiple vertical IPs example

Similar to the single point delete tool, filleted IPs will be removed, and the road alignment and design will automatically update to reflect the change.
