Move Sign Support Symbol Dialog Box

Sign Support Symbol Placement Section

Maintain Current Placement

Click this option and then click Next to preserve the current sign support symbol placement.

Change Placement

Click this option, then, in the drawing, click the desired sign support symbol, move it as necessary, and then click in the drawing to set it's new placement.

Reference Line Section

This check box will be selected if the sign assembly was placed in reference to a reference line. Select a different reference line or offset reference geometry and/or type a new value in the distance box to move the sign assembly.

Clear this check box and then click a point in the sign plan drawing to place the sign support symbol.

Side of Reference

Click Left or Right to specify which side of the reference line or offset reference geometry to place the sign support symbol.

Note: If the sign support symbol was not originally placed relevant to a reference line or offset reference geometry, or if you select a different reference line or offset reference geometry, the default sign facing will be set perpendicular relative to the reference line or offset reference geometry selected in the list. You can modify sign facing at the next step using the Change Sign Facing dialog box (see Change Sign Facing).

Button Option Click to...
Override Horizontal Clearance Override the horizontal clearance for the reference line or offset reference geometry selected in the list.

Minimum Sign Support Distance

Allows you to specify a radius of the circle drawn around the pointer during sign support symbol placement to help you choose a position that is far enough from other sign supports to ensure adequate spacing or a larger radius that would determine the suitable placement of repeated signs along the corridor. To specify the minimum sign support distance, select the Minimum Sign Support Distance check box, and then type the desired value in the corresponding box.
