Coincidentally, I'm working on an extended elevation at the moment, comprising six surveys. Happens to be the easiest I've ever worked on - no loops! But I would like to tweak the length of some of the legs/branches to make the adjacent passage relativity align better. Sometimes extend left/ver

i realized i was too naive: the "principle" of the spanning tree is ok, but it is not enough. suppose to have five legs at a station 6-7 7-8 20-7 7-21 7-45 and some of them belongs to loop(s). Suppose that the user wants to have 6-7 7-8 together, and 20-7 7-21 together but the two pairs s

Thanks Marco and others for pointing these problems out. So I have another suggestion. Not to implement extend stop, equate, but add the possibility of 3 stations in extend ignore. I.e. extend ignore would mean, do not go to s3 if you came to s2 from s1. In your case Tarquin, specifying exte
