Improvement of the "Geometry Connector" to simplify for the user

Suggested improvements: Automatically fill in the correct radius of transition curves/clothoids. Make an option somewhere (civil design file settings?) to select if you want to give transition curve values "by length" or "by constant". If you choo...

Better Side Slope Annotation tool

Plan annotation for side slopes is something really difficult to do in plan drawings. First, there is only one workflow using Annotation Groups for 3D elements (3D side slope annotation is the full name). This make so that I can`t use my elements ...
