Carlson Software Forum

So I have a complicated parcel with several non-tangent curves and when I use Auto Annotate I get even numbered Radii and Arc Lengths. However, when I use the Map Check feature I am getting varied Radii. The numbers only change by the a hundredth here and there (the maximum error being 0.05' in one arc).

Using the Polyline Report feature these 'errors' are not present. Also I have not noticed a difference in Central Angles nor in Arc Length. I have broken these polylines up and re-joined them getting the same results several times.

My theory is that Carlson is putting the 'closure error' into the Radius of these courses to force closure.

Is this correct?

Is there anyway to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

thank you.

I have actually already contacted support about this and sent the file in. Lawrence helped me and confirmed my results and sent the problem on to programming. However, I have heard nothing since.

We do not have a Lawrence that works here at Carlson. Do you have the email address you sent that to? If you'd like, you can contact me directly at 606-564-5028 and I can give you my direct email address to send that in. Thanks again.
