Option to refresh/update/revise geometry point sequencing

When designing different types of sites/pads etc, it is very typical to provide set out points on our drawings. The issue is that designs can change requiring us to remove certain points which will leave a gap in the point sequencing. There needs ...

Automate the assignment of a node's sump offset based on largest connecting pipe's wall thickness

We are looking for a workflow where the Sump depth value can be set to the thickness of the "largest pipe" connected to a node. When the user places a node, if there is an option to set the sump depth to the thickness of the pipe, then it would au...

Clarify X/Y when using Civil Analysis

suppose you use the Civil analysis tool to track the mainline horizontal alignment to a point at the edge of pavement. It can be confusing for users to know if X/Y displayed in the dialog represents the point selected (e.g. at the edge of pavement...

Vertical Event Points

Split Drainage Node Baseline Reference into Station Reference and Offset Reference

Drainage nodes currently utilize an Elevation Reference and a Baseline Reference. It would be better to split the Baseline Reference into two separate references, 1) "Station Reference", and 2) "Offset Reference". In practice, this would allow a n...
