Note: This functionality is only available in AutoTURN Pro.

Creates a graph showing the longitudinal profile of a selected 3D turn simulation and crossing elements.

Note:

• The report created by the Analyze Vehicle Clearance tool illustrates the profile of the 3D swept path (i.e. 3D envelope of the vehicle).
• This tool does not support 3D loads.
