Generate Report of Construction Pipe Lengths, Start-Stop Station, and Offsets based on Keymap

Would like to utilized Asset Manager or a similar tool to quickly obtain quantities for drainage structures, namely pipes, based on a keymap. The idea is to feed the tool a keymap file, a file containing shapes representing each sheet, the tool us...

Set Left and Right Range {Search Distance} for Horizontal Feature Constraint in Templates

Allow a left and right max search range for Horizontal Feature Constraint as separate input boxes. Currently, if set to "0'", the search range is unlimited and items on the left side may find a matching feature definition intended for the right si...

Update string name when changing feature definition

When applying a FD to an element it would be great if when you change the FD the FD name updates to the new FD default. e.g. Apply a shoulder FD (FD name - "ES") and then change to E1 LNMK (FD name - "LE") - the ES string name wont update to LE.

External model checking process - by possibly running a report to identify where 3d conduit string lines have been placed - i.e soffit, centre, invert, crown or base, this will ensure all output data of conduits are consistent for construction.

This is useful to enable a) - checks to be carried out, b) - to identify possible conduits that require amending - to align with all others. This will enable consistent and accurate output data to be produced, that can be used to construct from.

Limit the types of models that can have coordinate systems

Would be nice if the non-indexed profile models and cross section models prevented users from being able to assign coordinate systems. Also would be nice if coordinate systems weren't able to be attached to sheet models either. Since coordinate sy...

Adding a toggle option to control superelevation section automatic recalculation

Providing a toggle to control the automatic recalculation of superelevation values when the alignment it is dependent on is revised will help limit re-work needed to customize the superelevation values for a project. Exporting and reimporting supe...

Ditches be channel features

It would be wonderful if ditches were channel features so that they could be treated as surface features like gutters are to get head on inlet.
