Add extra Coloum which shows Delta Value in Geometry Report at PC, PT, No Curve PI, SC and CS

Alerts users to the existence of "kinks" in horizontal alignments. These "kinks" are where the back and ahead tangents at PCs and PTs of curves are not on the same bearing. There is a small tolerance built in to eliminate rounding errors.

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...

Exporting reports to excel now prompted to save the file first, rather than it exporting directly into a new excel window.

Reporting tools are critical to our workflows to validate and document designs. Please consider reverting to exporting directly to Excel without having to save first - as this added step appears to be causing the issue, and only adds time to the w...
