Use 3D Element Elevation when using Edit Terrain > Insert Vertex

When inserting a vertex on a terrain using the edit tools, the vertex is put at 0 elevation (if outside the terrain) and at the terrain elevation (if inside the terrain) even if you snap to a 3D element. The current workaround requires moving the ...

Allow Assignment to Multiple Alternate Surfaces

There are often points in a template that should belong to multiple surfaces. For instance, we have a point in our rural templates that is part of the top mesh and should also belong to our aggregate shoulder alternate surface and our subgrade sur...

Replace or swap master survey terrain without losing links or relationships

Replace or swap master survey terrain without losing links or relationships to design elements or other corridors, DGNs etc. I use a complex terrain to achieve this now, it would be nice to have another option

Ability to Export/Import Alignment With ALL Parts

Currently, the only way to export/import alignments appears to be using LandXML. Currently this does not appear to allow Exporting and Importing Event Points that are part of an Alignment. Since DGN's can be corrupted, there needs to be a method t...

Enhance Design Standards to flag gaps in Geometry & apply to Feature Definitions

Additional functionality is needed for Design Standards to be fully functional for project delivery. Some additional thins include: Allow Design Standards to be optionally assigned to Alignment Feature Definitions so Alignments are created with th...

Implement a SWITCH/CASE function for item type expressions.

A SWITCH/CASE function would be easier to use than having to nest multiple IF functions.

Add ability for Geometry build to automate station equations when joining complex geometry

In the Geometry Builder Edit, I can pick multiple geometry complex alignments and add them to create a 'combined' geometry. When I pick the multiple geometry elements and combine them, it starts with the alignment stationing of the first selected ...

New Variable to Control XSEC View Exaggeration Separate from Profile View Exaggeration

Consider adding a set of variables to control XSEC view exaggeration and default exaggeration separate from profile view exaggeration. This would be similar to how there is a separate set of variables for super exaggeration. Suggested variables wo...

Enable hydraulic analysis for referenced files

For large projects, we need the ability to have multiple engineers working on the hydraulic model. We can achieve this by splitting the pipe network into multiple files and creating catchments in separate files. Doing so causes us to lose the abil...

Add all feature definition types to cross section annotation groups.

Currently, annotation groups are limited to certain feature definition categories. This limits our ability to automatically annotate point features such as signs or geotech borings or drainage/utility nodes. It would be desirable to extract data f...
