Ability for Superelevation Lanes to use Crossfall between Linear Features to define superelevation

In many circumstances superelevation cannot be easily defined by superelevation points, i.e. tie-ins to existing crossfall, extension of adjacent carriageway crossfalls, eg. ramps, intersections, etc. In these circumstances users need to use linea...

Add Ability to use Measure Area: Flood tool in cross section drawing models.

The measure Area Flood tool does not work in cross section drawing models. Currently there is no way to calculate the area of individual shapes. This means if there is anything unique on a cross section, we can’t measure it easily. And no one can ...
