Improve and simplify the named boundary drawing/sheet seed creation workflow

The way it is now, It's just too complex to create and custum the seeds for each client. Too many files, too many things to control and in too many folders/.cgf. You have to create many seeds with different specifics for each sheet size/scale/plan...

Copy multiple vertical elements

There's no option for copying multiple vertical elements - you can choose only one. My idea is to make the tool "Copy Vertical" similar to its equivalent in horizontal ("Copy Element") which allows to copy multiple elements.

Ability to annotate the difference of slope for vertical curve (parabola)

Currently we can not annotate the grade difference on the profile parabola, We can use the Item types to build a expression to calculate the grade difference and then use the civil labeler, but this workflow works only if the profile is not comple...

Ability to manage outer/inner pipe wall symbology separate from linear/profile symbology settings.

Need the ability to see wall symbology but not centerline. If the centerline symbology is set to construction class so are the inside/outside walls and they don't print. If the centerline is set to 255 the inside/outside walls do display in print ...

Annotate component quantities on cross sections

We need the ability to annotate component quantities on cross sections like you can the cut/fill volumes. Information could be pulled from the Quantities Report by Named Boundary.

Command to locate the midpoint between 2 points ala MTP or M2P in C3D

A command where, once activated, would prompt the user to select the first point, then the second point, and then the user's cursor would snap to a location located exactly in between the two points. This could be done without drawing any unnecess...

Split Drainage Node Baseline Reference into Station Reference and Offset Reference

Drainage nodes currently utilize an Elevation Reference and a Baseline Reference. It would be better to split the Baseline Reference into two separate references, 1) "Station Reference", and 2) "Offset Reference". In practice, this would allow a n...

Name Changing Per Drainage Structure

When naming nodes, we usually associate that node name with the conduit, drainage area, and gutter name. But, if we have to update the node name (ex: 0401 to 0405), then we have to change all the other names manually. User is looking for possibili...

Ability to lock profile when start stationing changes

Right now (2022 R1) if an alignment with a profile is extended in the start, the profile moves together with the start of the alignment. Two wishes: Possibility to lock the profile elements in their present position. Possibility to move the whole ...

Graphical display of corridor parametric constraints

It would be more efficient to be able to see the station limits of parametric constraints graphically on screen with a control line in plan view and be able to change these stations and values dynamically similar to point controls. The only option...
