Thanks, I'll check it out...

Hello all from a newbie...

I am totally new to SU, but I am looking to use it to help with my utility mapping needs.

I have been learning the basic functions and have a couple of plugins loaded. One is the pipealongpath ruby tool and the other is the roundcorner toolset from Fredo6.

I am looking specifically for the answers to the following...

Is there a utility to replace the sharp angular bends on lines (something like round corners does with geometric shapes)? Perhaps roundcorners does this bit I couldn't get it to work for me on just lines...

Is there a utility to draw lines based on geocoordinates (latitude and longitude, or lat, long and elevation)?

I am hoping to be able to plot the start and finish of lines (or a number of points along a line or lines) using geolocation and have them drawn in my sketch with the appropriate bends depending on the parameters that I specify for a material. For example, if a 300mm plastic pipe is the specified material, then I would like to have a 300mm radius 90 degree elbow show where the line takes a 90 degree bend. I don't necessarily want to draw them as pipes, but rather just represent the centreline of the pipe so as not to us up too much bandwidth...

Thanks in advance and cheers,

Steve
