Controls

The following properties allow control of the export.

General	Description
Content	If there are objects selected then only selected objects are exported. Displayed - If no objects are selected then only visible objects are exported. All - If no objects are selected then all objects are exported regardless of whether they are visible.
Curve Tolerance	Enter the maximum offset distance from a line to the chord between adjacent vertices in the line. Use this value to control the smoothness of circular arcs and splines that need to be output as straight line segments.
Export Points as Vertices	Do one of the following: Select the checkbox to export points (from a model view), that share a vertex with a line as vertices of the line. The points attributes are exported as attributes of the vertices. Clear the checkbox to export the points and the line.
Lookup Tables	Description
Layer	Select the layer lookup table to use during the export.
Line Style	Select the line style lookup table to use during the export.
Plan Symbol	Select the plan symbol lookup table to use during the export.
Attribute Definition	Select the attribute definition lookup table to be used during the export.

A blank selection for a lookup table indicates that no lookup will be performed.

Notes

Polygons are exported as closed strings.
2D circular arcs are exported with vertices heights.
3D circular arcs are converted to polylines using the Curve Tolerance.
3D circular arcs are converted to polylines using the Curve Tolerance.
Set Content to 'All' to export long sections or set Content to 'Display' and include the long sections alignment in the selection.
Each long section is exported with it's own alignment.

Possible errors

Error	Description
The long section long section name could not be exported. The profile is discontinuous.	The long section contains a gap which is not supported by the export format. You should either break the long section at the gap and create two separate long sections, or fill the gap by adding a new long section segment.
