Drawing Style is missing key elements

Answer: Try using a different drawing style or drawing from a different road model. Is it still the same problem?

Check if any of the layers in the drawing is turned off or frozen?

Try running reset_user_settings.

Cannot draw the whole road model

Answer: Is the road model build for the whole stretch you want to draw?

Answer: Try turning on Simplify terrain cross-sections in the roadmodel settings. Then rebuild the model.

To access

1. Roadmodel settings from Design ribbon or Model > Settings in Classic roadmodeling tool

2. Go to Terrain Boundaries

3. Go to Advanced

4. Turn on Simplify terrain cross-sections

You could also try to vary the horizontal and vertical tolerance.
