Civil Expression value option for Increasing

Currently there are values for StationStart and StationEnd, which is dependent on the direction of the line being drawn. I am proposing an additional option to report the beginning and ending of stationing with respect to the alignment (smallest t...

Civil Labeler with Null Target

Have the ability to create Civil labeler with a null Target. This will give user the ability to create label for features/lines to use from one tool and one source. Further enhancement would be able use an expression that would change the label(ca...

Specific model option for annotation

Would be nice to have an option to run an 'drawing model annotation' for specific models rather than just all or one. This could be helpful for cross section annotation if we want to use different annotation groups for different ranges of the cros...

Ability to switch the priority of other end conditions within the end condition editor as an override.

Currently there is no way to use end condition exceptions and as an override switch between other end conditions within a certain station range. A simple addition to the override feature where you could temporarily change the priorities of the end...

Ability to make Geometry Profile models indexed DGN models for ease of use & design workflows

Similar to all the other models, we regularly want to go in and out of Alignment Profile models and the current methods of having to navigate to the geometry to access it is very disruptive and inefficient. Also, having these as hidden models limi...

When creating a new point in a Survey field book using the “New Point” command, allow an option to hand-enter the coordinates.

When using the “New Point” command for a survey point, the user must screen-pick the coordinates. There are times when it would be extremely useful to hand-enter the Northing, Easting, Elevation.

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...

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Export multiple terrain models as a single XML file

We deliver terrain models for top/bottom surfaces of a roadway. Due to gaps in project data we often have multiple top surfaces and multiple bottom surfaces. It would be nice to export all surfaces as a single XML file similar to alignments.
