Generate 2D Closed Shape from Corridor Component or Other Mesh

It would be extremely useful to have the option to generate a 2D shape of the top planar surface of a 3D component that updates as the corridor changes. This would be similar to how corridor points can already generate a 2D line if specified in th...

Annotate the flow direction of a ditch in cross section drawing model.

Ability to annotate the flow direction of a ditch using an annotation group within a cross section drawing model. Currently the annotation exists only for plan view (See communities post here ). In Geopak we had a workflow to accomplish this task,...

Invert Terrain Elevation

ASCII elevation data from hydrosurveys is delivered in positive depths making for an embankment instead of a channel. A function to multiply elevations by -1 would save a trip through Excel or a GIS program.

Turnout in exportable file

It would be very useful to have a way of bringing geometry including turnouts between models i.e. as in the .alg files. Rather than having to use a dgn. With large alignment files, they are a lot more manageable/faster when split into smaller sect...
