Question:

I am having an issue when trying to create new templates that the feature library is not loading up. When I go to the PowerInRoads Tools>Style Manager the default library shows up. I cannot find the checkbox or option or setting to activate this library when I creating templates.

Answer:

The Civil Tools in Open Roads Technology looks to Feature Definitions and not Tools>Style Manager. If there were (are) styles in your XIN that you’d like to use with the Civil Tools, you must first link your XIN and those style will then be available. To do so, load your XIN into the legacy InRoads dialog box as usual and then select Project Explorer (Open Roads). Select the Civil Standards tab and expand your Design file tree. Right click on Feature Definitions and then select Link Active Feature Styles. Styles from your XIN are not available.
