Ability to use Cross Section Named Boundaries across references

We would like to be able to create cross section sheets by referencing previously created boundaries in a similar manner to how we currently are able to use Plan and Profile Named Boundaries across references.

Ability to reference in Navisworks model files

Currently our only option is to bring in Navisworks Simulate models is find the .DWGs that possibly populate it and bring each one in individually. The individual reference option misses out on any files from other software (such as smartplant) su...

Tool to convert Parametric Cell to a 2D Civil Cell

Civil Cells are often difficult to create due to it's use of parent-child relationships. I find it easier to create what I'm looking for by using constraints and variables for Parametric Cells. I think most Parametric Cells act similar to how a Ci...

Forcing Tangency in Geometry Builder by element

The Geometry Builder allows us to force tangent restrictions. In some cases there might be some lines/arcs that are tangent and some that are not. It would be an improvement to have the ability to force tangent where needed instead of on all eleme...

Provide a property for Corridors that shows the associated ITL

Corridors may use a variety of template drops that come from a non-default ITL (i.e. the one defined by the configuration variable CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY). A property of the corridor could be shown that identifies any of the ITLs associate...
