Set cant parameters before applying

Make the Cant tool more useful. Currently, we set the speed then apply cant and it spits out some random cant values, which are unrealistic. Then we can set the cant parameters and the software proves the values are unrealistic and we have to edit...

Numerical display for applied cant

Recommended that a when using the cross-section tool to view the applied cant along the alignment, the tool displays the cant as numerical value on the cross-section. The number should be generated automatically and displayed next the chainage...

Non automatic update of cant values in cant table

This comment is coupled with another idea I had regarding selective update of annotations. Again the problem stems directly from the dynamic nature of ORD. Usually the process to create a cant for an alignment goes as follows: -Creation of speed t...
