Make the Edit Feature Definition dialog box an actual dialog box. Currently it's too difficult to expand the dialog window, and it only remains in view when your cursor is within the window. It disappears too easily with a slight move outside of t...

Ability to add "lock points" in the geometries with higher priority than the usual rules

An option to add "geometry lock points" in the geometries with higher priority than the usual rules would be really useful to make the geometry behave as you wish. As an example it could be the center point of a radius so that the radius keeps it ...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

Add option to set forward/backward depth and forward/backward display while creating the cross section sheets.

When making named boundaries we were not able to select any settings or seed files that would let us select the options for forward/backward depth and forward/backward display. This means we had to go into each named boundary individually. Its imp...

Allow for different shaft fixity in one model

A column on drilled shafts can have different fixity locations for different load cases. Suggest allowing analysis of the same bridge with different fixities rather then needing to create multiple models with varying fixities for simplicity.

Add "Make Active Profile" checkbox to all element profiles tools

Every command in the vertical group in the geometry tab should have a checkbox inside to automatically make it the active one. This way the user won't have to open the profile in a view and select it. Pretty simple and would save a lot of work..
