Ability to have corridor/linear template pivot at end of alignment

Currently when developing a object that is at a skew, whether it be a road, bridge, culvert, or other detail modeling. If the start/end of the object is at a skew compared to the alignment that it is attached to, it is difficult to model. The user...

Apply superelevation to Linear Templates

I have built a civil cell using linear templates. The civil cell will need to have superelevation applied to it. Currently I cannot apply superelevation to the linear templates, and I cannot use a corridor within my civil cell without other issues...
