Have Sight Visibility Lines also created as 2d Geometry so users can visually inspect/present failures

Currently sight distance analysis results are purely 3d extended objects that only offers a limited amount of functionality to determine visually why a failure is occurring. Adding 2d geometry representation to these objects would allow users to p...

Ability to assign name and/or number to horizontal geometry PC/PT/PI/CC/etc

Or maybe auto-assigning sequential number with the ability to add a prefix based on Feature Definition? Some clients require labeling the horizontal geometry points with a name/number that coincides with tables/reports. This applies to roadway geo...

Deed Writer should be able to handle calculated inserts in the phrase option inserts.

This would allow for the phrase option inserts to use calculated values. Currently some phrases that we want to create as a phrase option have calculated values, but some do not.

Standard Report Formatting

We use reports generated in the Civil Reports Browser to export reports that go to contractors in the field. We often run into issues with the formatting of the report not being set correctly. This problem is compounded by the fact that formatting...

Ruled Copy Enhancement to Complex By Element Tool

There is currently not a way to create a ruled copy of an element when using the Complex By Element tool. Being able to create a ruled copy of a range of segments and curves into a complex element with a different feature definition would be a hel...

Civil Labeler - option to place DUConduit annotation at endpoints only

Idea: ability to select the End point of linear features while setting the Civil Labeler placement. This functionality would help users to place annotation of DU links at end point only. This type of feature is useful to annotate the Drop Depth va...

Want a warning when detach a reference file used by civil labeler with element association

When a corridor is based on an alignment from a reference file we get a warning when we try to detach the alignment reference file to minimize the chance of breaking the connection between the corridor and it's source alignment. Can we similarly g...

Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...

Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...

Visible final contour labels in corridor

After the corridor is created, it is possible to see the final contours. However, the contour elevation labels are not shown unless a proposed surface is created. Why is that so? I believe it would be beneficial to toggle on/off contour elevation ...
