Hello,  
I have an issue with importing feature lines from Civil3D into Dynamo.  
Here is the photo:

 ![intersection](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/d/e/dee9e9beae76ec1a70311dfa642a7c7e540f8095.jpeg)  
That should be an intersection with edges.  
This is the link to files:  
[https://we.tl/t-fYN7WhBFei](https://we.tl/t-fYN7WhBFei)

What it means that “Warning: CorridorFeatureLine.get\_PolyCurve operation failed.  
Unable to create Line. Points are likely coincident”?  
Do I have two feature lines with common points? How to fix it or avoid?

Thanks

Try adjusting your geometry working range. Likely scaling it to a larger value will resolve.

@Michael_Kirschner2 What is the suggestion for working with large coordinates? I met this also quite often, especially for civil 3d projects which uses large (UTM) coordinates (after changing Geometry Scaling).

This may help sort things @angelohbwang.

@jrogulski - can you post the .dyn where you tried to move these to the origin as I showed in the other thread?

I have no idea how to connect Civil Flines with “Set coordinate system” blocks.

Even if I get it, I suppose it will loose ‘smooth’ shape. Am I right?

@jrogulski can you repost your dynamo solution? although it doesnt fit my case exactly  
My situation is bringing in about 50 polyline from civil3d (i placed on layer 1) that are very far from center point of the dwg and getting error: unable to create line. this is after uping my scaling, so just trying to replicate what u did for my proj. Trying to convert my polylines to points, and my end result needs to be same as original location. Here is what i got so far:

any tips would be appreciated

Do not bother to find a solution. It cannot be fixed without newest version of Civil with full cooperative Dynamo plug-in.

About files, I can send you those if this is still in need.

yes can u still send. is it possible to move points from a dwg being brought in?  
I have 2 projects that have this problem, that need to be moved then moved back. any additional help you could provide would be appreciated
