How can I split a street to remove the entry and exit?

[AbeleGiandoso]

Hi

Is there a way to use the split operation to remove the entry and exit parts of a street and keep the portion which has the regular street width?

some variation of 

split(u, uvSpace, 0)

Here Street and intersection shape UV—ArcGIS CityEngine Resources | Documentation 

the docs says that :

 The central region of the geometry is normalized along its length from 0 to 1, and across its width by 0 to the number of lanes. 

The entry and exit of a street shape are parameterized to blend with the central region. For example the entry (above, blue) and exit (green) u-values are oriented and scaled to match the central region (red). The entry has negative U values, and the exit has U values greater than 1.

How can I say, "cut everything with UVs which are out of the 0,1 range?

Cheryl Lau, Simon Haegler any idea? 

Thanks

Hi,

yes, you can do this with the UV split.

One side has negative values in v-coords, so you can use the absolute of that to cut off that part. On the other side, you can cut by the distance of the (max v) - floor(max v) ((or very similar)).

Check the vmin, vmax functions.

Cheers,

matt
