Clip Conduits (pipes) at inside edge of Drainage Structures and Report "True" Horizontal Lengths and Vertical Lengths in the Properties

This is more than useful; this is absolutely required. When laying out Drainage Networks, pipes need to be trimmed at the inside edge of the structures, and the "True" pipe lengths (horizontal & vertical) need to be provided in the properties....

Single Offset Partial/Entire Element creates complex elements with the ability to add/remove tapers

One of the factors prohibiting the use of civil geometry in plan production is that it can often feel cumbersome to implement design changes without 'breaking' your previous work. Let's say you have an intersection designed using civil geometry, a...

When using the Set Feature Definition tool on non-civil geometry, have it include Item Types attached to Feature Definition.

Currently, when using the Set Feature Definition tool to assign a Feature Definition to a non-civil element (ie a dumb MSCE line) it does not include the Item Types that are attached to the Feature Definition.
