1. Always have a blank CAD drawing available to view geometry and surface information without the clutter of other active elements in the file. Also, by sometimes working in a blank drawing, you can turn all the levels on to avoid viewing something, having to “hunt” for it, then finding that the level was turned off.

2. The InRoads “external” file name on the hard drive does not have to be the same as the “internal” InRoads name, although they are often synchronized for ease of recognition. However in some cases, like using a surface name in a Decision Table, the “external” and “internal” name of the existing surface is very often different to reduce the amount of Decision Table editing on subsequent projects.
