Add a property to apply terrain feature type to civil elements.

Set the terrain feature type for template points (breakline, boundary). When creating a terrain from a corridor, this would automatically create the exterior boundary eliminating the need for trimming edge triangles. Provide this same functionalit...

Use survey elements for point controls

If I have a survey element that represents some existing feature, I'd like the ability to use it as a point control when designing corridors.
