Add Generate Transverse Feature from InRoads to OpenRoads

This tool was incredibly useful in creating Finished Grade and subgrade terrains, allowing for quick creation of transverse features to control triangulation and slope transitions in intersections and grading. The fact that the lines could be made...

Item Type Expression that References a Terrain

Similar to the new Station/Offset Expressions, it would be great to query a terrain in an item type on an element and return the elevation. It would be used primarily for point cells, but I could also see it being useful for linework.

Terrain Display Option/Creation without Facet Smoothing

The way Openroads currently displays terrain models is not very defined. We need to have the option to create terrains without the use of Facet Smoothing so they will display similar to how InRoads does. I've attached a sample of an InRoads Terrai...
