Add Dynamics / Rules to Meshes produced by Create Closed Mesh Tool

Currently the Create Closed Mesh Tool produces static meshes which do not update when base elements change. When any of the base elements change, the existing meshes need to be deleted and created from scratch. We would like to see the following i...

Add a new component point to place a template to reference "CALL" other templates.

A new component called "Reference Point" to use when creating more complex templates that can "Call" other templates from the library that also uses prefixes, etc...

Corridor Flow Arrows

An option of flow arrows display for corridors would be great a great enhancement complementing already very useful contours display within corridor feature definition. A combination of these two functionalities would greatly reduce the need for t...

get quick slope measurement from dynamic cross section based off alignment (not corridor!)

I know if you open dynamic cross sections based off a corridor you can place temporary dimensions. but if you open a dynamic cross section based off the alignment you cannot place temporary dimension lines. I need an easy way to get what slope a g...

Create 3D Automatically should inherit elevations from civil points if you draw a civil line and snap to the points

For detail grade areas it would be nice to place points in plan view and snap lines to those points. The lines would have annotation groups assigned to them to label the slope and distance between the points. Grades could then easily be tweaked by...

Model Camber on Concrete Beams

Currently concrete beam tops are drawn straight across along the length of the beams. Allow the users to specify a camber value at middle and draw the beams curved.

Chevron Pavement Marking Tool

This tool would replace the old Geopak tool that created chevrons with minimal effort. It's certainly possible to create chevrons by hand with the current tools, but it takes significantly more time for what was a pretty quick task. I think the ol...

Item Types for Parametric cells

Users are asking for item types for Parametric cells. Primarily for quantities reports. We tag each element, but can we expose volumes for each element in a Parametric cell. The most important things are Volume, Surface Area, Length(Column, Pile,...

Surface Template - "Process Corridor" similar tool

Just add the function to process the template again so it can be updated. This is a major issue when using surface templates with clipping boundaries. If I change the clipping boundary (a simple shape on the 2D model), I have to delete and reapply...

When looking at point controls/parametric constraints in Corridor Objects, highlight affected point(s) in dynamic XS view.

The legacy corridor modeler would put a white crosshair in the XS view on the specific point being manipulated when the corresponding point control was selected. I'd like this same functionality in the dynamic XS view.
