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...
