SignCAD Layout Generation From Street-Level Imagery

This would be useful as we currently manage multiple signage replacement projects per year (10-15) that involve the layout of hundreds of signs in SignCAD. This represents a large portion of the labor hours in the creation of engineering plans for...

Quadrant Option for Bearing input in Geometry/Lines

Geometry/Lines requires you to enter the bearing value as S45d30'30"E which is way too many key strokes and unproductive. Geometry Builder allows us to enter the same bearing using the quadrant method (245.3030) which is much faster/easier and ali...

"Format Painter" for OBM components

We need a way to intelligently copy/replicate placement parameters from one object to another. Like wingwalls, etc. Yes, I know you can add things to the workset library, but that doesn't cover offsets, stationing relations, etc. Similarly, it won...

Enhancing Named Boundaries: Updating Named Boundaries and Applying Geometry Rules

To enhance productivity and efficiency in live projects, we need dynamic Named Boundaries linked to Geometry. This includes the ability to update the shape or location of a named boundary after creating a sheet model, with the changes reflected in...

Set Feature Definition - Use Active Feature Definition

Unlike many of the civil tools, the Set Feature Definition tool does not have an option to use active feature definition. This tool is commonly used with Match Feature Definition, which sets the active feature from selected element. Add option for...

Allow option to set rounding of civil labeler to std or round up.

Pipe lengths and some other items are generally rounded up to nearest foot for quantities so to get the label to match the quantity we would need to hand modify the label.

Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain

Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...

Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes

Ability to export and import all corridor objects such as point controls to enable rebuilding of corridors

I know parametric constraints can be exported but if a corridor becomes corrupt then being able to rebuild it from scratch easily would be useful. Similar to an input file in MX
