Ability to have corridor/linear template pivot at end of alignment

Currently when developing a object that is at a skew, whether it be a road, bridge, culvert, or other detail modeling. If the start/end of the object is at a skew compared to the alignment that it is attached to, it is difficult to model. The user...

Display Point Cloud data in A "Profile View"

When creating a profile view from 2D Geometry, there is no way to show the Point Cloud data which may attached to the model. When performing a "Create 3D Cut" the Point Cloud Data should be displayed. The only work around I have found is to create...
