Prevent or warn users if someone tries to add a reference file manually to a dynamic section or profile window

Seems that users generally shouldn't be adding plan based reference files to dynamic cross section or profile window design models known as non-indexed models. Would be nice to prevent someone from accidentally doing this and not realizing.

Control how Explorer sorts items

It would be really nice if we could organize items in the explorer by differently than it does by default. Adding the ability to control how the Explorer sorts items, whether it's something typical like alphabetically by name or something differen...

Allow users to see horizontal and vertical alignments while in view only mode.

Seperating the "add point control/parametric constraint" and "delete point control/parametric constraint" buttons within the corridor objects tool.

Many times a day I accidently delete a point control or parametric constraint when I'm trying to add. The buttons are extremely close, is there a way to move the delete button further away?

Corridor Objects Dialog box to stay put after creating parametric constrains/point controls and etc.

Allow Cross Section Navigator to work in read-only mode

The XS Navigator tool's full functionality is contingent upon users having file read/write access. This requirement seems excessive for reviewers who primarily need read-only access. I suggest revising the tool to accommodate reviewers with read-o...
