Reflect template for template drop

It would be very helpful if we could reflect a template while assigning it to a template drop. Templates currently can only be placed in the direction they were created, from template origin "out". This requires a duplication of templates, as sepa...

Create 3D Automatically should inherit elevations from civil points if you draw a civil line and snap to the points

For detail grade areas it would be nice to place points in plan view and snap lines to those points. The lines would have annotation groups assigned to them to label the slope and distance between the points. Grades could then easily be tweaked by...

Volumetric Meshes created as Scalable Meshes

For large scale projects, earthwork volumetric meshes cause considerable deficits in navigation performance due to the high count of vertices and faces to be calculated with each navigational operation. Use of scalable meshes for these components ...

Template (ITL): add parameters for component length, spacing and individual

It could be useful for different purposes to be able to create component meshes of defined length (construction, pre cast slab). I suggest to add at least 3 parameters to any component: length of the component: the question is then, where to measu...

Add a new component point to place a template to reference "CALL" other templates.

A new component called "Reference Point" to use when creating more complex templates that can "Call" other templates from the library that also uses prefixes, etc...

Corridor Flow Arrows

An option of flow arrows display for corridors would be great a great enhancement complementing already very useful contours display within corridor feature definition. A combination of these two functionalities would greatly reduce the need for t...

Visible final contour labels in corridor

After the corridor is created, it is possible to see the final contours. However, the contour elevation labels are not shown unless a proposed surface is created. Why is that so? I believe it would be beneficial to toggle on/off contour elevation ...

Add Dynamics / Rules to Meshes produced by Create Closed Mesh Tool

Currently the Create Closed Mesh Tool produces static meshes which do not update when base elements change. When any of the base elements change, the existing meshes need to be deleted and created from scratch. We would like to see the following i...

Add Corridor/Linear Template Vertical & Both Point Controls "Active Profile" option

Currently Corridor Vertical/Both Point Controls link the the specific Vertical Profile and when these get deleted, the Point Control is removed without warning. An option to set this point control to always use the Active Profile would allow this ...

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...
