9/17/2008 1

INTRODUCTION The sole intent of this document is to provide the users an up to date listing of all supported GEOPAK Criteria Syntax. This document is not intended to train nor provide specific examples. This document should be considered as a command reference only.

This document is being made available for the first time to our Users with the release of GEOPAK Suite 08.08.xx.xx. When a new version of GEOPAK is released (including service packs), this document will be updated to include any additional criteria syntax additions included with the release. All future changes to this document will include a note specifying the released GEOPAK version the additions were added to the product.

Any questions / comments related to GEOPAK Criteria should always be addressed through the conventional Bentley Support and or Training Channels.

Mark Points

Intrinsic Mark Points Pn (where n=1, 2,… 20) P[<arithmetic expression>] XS EG LT PT intrinsic marked point for left end of existing ground example: draw skip to XS EG LT PT XS EG RT PT intrinsic marked point for right end of existing ground example: draw skip to XS EG RT PT XS HI PT intrinsic marked point for upper right edge of cross section cell search boundary example: draw skip to XS HI PT XS LO PT intrinsic marked point for lower left edge of cross section cell search boundary example: draw skip to XS LO PT XS BL PT intrinsic marked point for X and Y axis intersection of cross section cell example: draw skip to XS BL PT Non-Intrinsic Mark Points Xn Yn x[<arithmetic expression>] y[<arithmetic expression>]

Non-Intrinsic Mark Point Variables: Xn (where n=1, 2,… 1000) Yn (where n=1, 2,… 1000) X[<arithmetic expression>] Y[<arithmetic expression>] XS View: Starting Location: p1 .x Automatically assigned by 3PC .y Automatically assigned by 3PC .elev Automatically assigned by 3PC .distalongchain Automatically assigned by 3PC .off Automatically assigned by 3PC Plan View: Starting Location: global origin .x Automatically assigned by 3PC .y Automatically assigned by 3PC .elev Undefined (Set to huge number) .distalongchain Undefined (Set to huge number) .off Undefined (Set to huge number)

Profile View: Starting Location: Reference DP .x Automatically assigned by 3PC .y Automatically assigned by 3PC .elev Set relative to reference elev .distalongchain Set relative to reference distAlongChain .off Set to 0 NOTE: 3 Port Mark Point Rules:

• Mark Point Name in XS: Point can be used in Plan and Profile Views. • Mark Point Name in Plan: Point can be used in Profile View if .distAlongChain and .elev assigned. Point cannot be used in XS View.

• Mark Point Name in Profile: Point can be used in Plan View only. Point cannot be used in XS View. • .elev = (Ref DP elev) + (Point’s Prof View Y - Ref DP Prof View Y) *

vert scale / horiz scale • .distAlongChain = (Ref DP distAlongChain) + (Point’s Prof View X –

Ref DP Prof View X) –Gaps, where Gaps = the sum of the lengths of all the gaps between the Point and the Ref DP.

Assignment Statements for Mark Points: = .x = <arithmetic expression> .y = <arithmetic expression> .elev = <arithmetic expression> .distAlongChain = <arithmetic expression> Note: must be marked prior to performing any assignments

Define_DGN Statements:

Note: By Feature Symbology Only

Define_DGN <”string”> \ dgn = <string> \ wt = <string> \ co = <string> \ lc = <string> \ LvName = <string> \ LvName = < string> \ LvName = < string> \ type = line, line_string, arc, curve, shape, cmp_string, cmp_shape, point_string, bspline, ellipse, multiline Note: The DGN filename is optional if drawing to the same file as processing such as in the usage of material above or below or 3PC plan view Criteria. However, omitting the drawing name is only allowed directly in the Criteria and is not supported if defining the define_dgn through Project Manager.

Note: By DDB Feature Define_DGN <”string”> \ dgn = <string> \ ddb = <string> \ feature = <string> Note: Feature = Path in DDB to either the proper category name or individual item name, i.e. feature = Plan Topo & Notation/Roadway Existing/Roadway Features Existing/ExEOP

Note: By Model Surface

Define_DGN <”string”> \ dgn = <string> \ feature type = <string> \ material type = <string> \ surface type = <string>

If-Then expressions:

IF <conditional expression> THEN { } ELSE IF <conditional expression> THEN { } ELSE { }

Testing for Presence of Marked Points /* Testing for conventional marked points */ if NOT (value of x1 defined) then Note: Resets for each cross section /* Testing for 3PC marked points. Once marked, valid for entire cross section run */ if NOT (_mp_point) then /* Testing for existing ground at a previously marked point */ if (value of elev diff at x1 y1 defined) then Intersecting of Plan Elements: If (intersect dgn = <“string”>) then

/* Looks away from the baseline in the positive X direction */ If (intersect dgn = <“string”> IN) then /* Looks towards the baseline in the negative X direction using the keyword “IN” */

While (intersect dgn = <“string”>) /* Looks away from the baseline in the positive X direction */ While (intersect dgn = <“string”> IN) /* Looks towards the baseline in the negative X direction using the keyword “IN” */ If (intersect dgn = <“string”> within distance = <expression>) then /* Looks away from the baseline in the positive X direction for a specified distance */ If (intersect dgn = <“string”> IN within distance = <expression>) then /* Looks towards the baseline in the negative X direction using the keyword “IN” for a specified distance */

While (intersect dgn = <“string”> within distance = <expression>) /* Looks away from the baseline in the positive X direction for a specified distance */ While (intersect dgn = <“string”> IN within distance = <expression>) /* Looks towards the baseline in the negative X direction using the keyword “IN” for a specified distance */

Logical Intrinsic Variables (Used Only in If-Then Statements):

Proposed XS Context MATERIAL BELOW = < define_dgn variable > MATERIAL ABOVE = < define_dgn variable > MATERIAL BELOW Xn Yn = < define_dgn variable > STATION WITHIN PROFILE = <profile name> CHAIN <_s_string> STATION WITHIN PROFILE = <profile name> INTERSECT DGN = < define_dgn variable >

While expressions: WHILE <conditional expression> { } BREAK (Used only in a WHILE loop, terminates the current loop.) CONTINUE (Used only in a WHILE loop, skips all remaining lines within the current WHILE loop and does a new iteration of the loop.) Arrays: _d_<string>[<arithmetic expression>] = <arithmetic expression>

example: _d_coulmn1[_d_index_number] = _d_current_value

The arithmetic expression used to set the index number should be the number 1 or greater. Never use a zero. _s_<string>[<arithmetic expression>] = ^<string>^

example: _s_coulmn2[_d_index_number] = _s_current_label

The text string field width will be set to 40 characters by default for string arrays. If more than 40 is desired the following syntax may be used: _d_<string> = <arithmetic expression> set string length _d_<string> Go To Label: (Added GEOPAK Version 08.08.02.45 or greater) _d_<string> = <arithmetic expression> GO TO LABEL <arithmetic expression> GO TO LABEL _d_<string> LABEL <arithmetic expression> LABEL _d_<string>

The GO TO LABEL syntax effectively skips all Criteria between the call and the label location. The GO TO and LABEL syntax MUST be in the same level of indentation, i.e., same set of {…}. Draw Statements: DRAW [skip] [GG=<gg name>]<slope component> <distance component>

Conversion Functions: <string variable> = CVT_D_S0(<arithmetic expression>) <string variable> = CVT_D_S4(<arithmetic expression>) <double-precision variable> = CVT_S_D(<string variable>) <string variable> = CVT_D_S0_ADMS(<arithmetic expression>) <string variable> = CVT_D_S4_ADMS(<arithmetic expression>) <string variable> = CVT_D_S0_ADM(<arithmetic expression>) <string variable> = CVT_D_S4_AD(<arithmetic expression>) <arithmetic expression> = CVT_StaReg_distAlongChain (<string variable>, <string variable>, <chain name>) <string variable> = CVT_D_STA(<arithmetic expression>) <double-precision variable> = CVT_STA_D(<string variable>) <string variable> = CVT_distAlongChain_Sta (<arithmetic expression>, <chain name>) <string variable> = CVT_distAlongChain_Reg (<arithmetic expression>, <chain name>) NOTE: Using a very large <arithmetic expression> will return the end station for the chain. Of course, the beginning station can be obtained by setting the <arithmetic expression>=0.0. NOTE: Additional options have been added to the conversion function “CVT_distAlongChain_Sta” to allow the user to individually control the format of the stationing. Number of decimal places and station format are now optional. The following examples illustrate these optional enhancements. Example 1 specifies only number of decimals: _d_stadec = 3 use a valid integer _s_sta = cvt_distalongchain_sta (_mp_clpt.distalongchain, _s_chain_name, _d_stadec) Example 2 specifies only station format: _s_stafmt = ^1+234^ or ^12+34^ or ^1234^ or ^+234^ or ^+34^ or ^1^ or ^12^ _s_sta = cvt_distalongchain_sta (_mp_clpt.distalongchain, _s_chain_name, DEFAULT, _s_stafmt) Example 3 specifies both number of decimals and station format: _d_stadec = 3 use a valid integer _s_stafmt = ^1+234^ or ^12+34^ or ^1234^ or ^+234^ or ^+34^ or ^1^ or ^12^ _s_sta = cvt_distalongchain_sta (_mp_clpt.distalongchain, _s_chain_name, _d_stadec, _s_stafmt)

String Comparison: Stringsmatch(<string variable>,<string variable>) Note: Typically used in a IF statement or While Loop, allows the comparison of two text string variables. Wildcards are supported. Example:

If (stringsmatch(_s_lvname,^Edge*^)) then String Parsing: <string variable> = <string variable>[N:n] Note: Go to the “N”th character and grab the next “n” characters: Example:

_s_fulltext = ^0123456789^ _s_subtext = _s_fulltext[4:3]

the above syntax would make _s_subtext = ^345^ DTM Statements: <double-precision variable> = dtm_elevation(<TIN File Name>,<marked point name>) NOTE: Returns huge number if marked point is outside the TIN hull.

draw skip dx=1 dy=0 to "Driveway" _ss_selection_set = DEFINE_DGN SELECTION SET

/* note will always be just one in the selection set */ _ed_selection_set = _ss_selection_set(1) if (_ed_selection_set.adhocNumber > 0) then { _d_DrivewayDepth = _ed_selection_set.adhocNumericValue(^Driveway Depth^) _s_DrivewayType = _ed_selection_set.adhocStringValue(^Driveway Type^) } Input Intrinsic Variables: _d_<string> = DGN NUMBER OF ELEMENTS _d_<string> = D&C NUMBER OF ELEMENTS _d_<string> = DEFINE_DGN NUMBER OF ELEMENTS Note: When plan element is found, this will always return a value of 1.
