Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes

Vertical curves/kvalues to report direction as positive/negative

Handing of vertical curves in reports/table editor is always positive in the reports. Geometry exports are used by Construction Teams, as part of the Approved for Construction design pack. Horizontal curves have a handing convention - +ve = RH cur...

Ability to export and import all corridor objects such as point controls to enable rebuilding of corridors

I know parametric constraints can be exported but if a corridor becomes corrupt then being able to rebuild it from scratch easily would be useful. Similar to an input file in MX

Snapping to arc/spiral end in profile

I would highly recommend to let user to snap to arc or spiral end in profile design. As you can see in the attached video I can't find intersection between profile alignment and vertical line that indicates arc/spiral end. To find intersection b...

Annotation Group Text View Readable respect ACS

The text from annotation groups doesn`t follow the view rotation or the ACS. Just the global. This makes it unpratical and unhelpful.. Most plan sheets doesn`t follow the true north rotation and have an ACS. I don`t know if this is a bug or just n...

Annotate Slope of terrain between points in Cross Sections

Civil labeler only works for 3D linear features (points). It`s impossible to annotate the slope from the terrain between two points. If you try that, the whole terrain section is selected and the command fails. A great example is a cross section o...

Button to synchronize all template drops for all corridors & linear templates in a file

I'd like a tool that synchronizes all template drops in all corridors in a file, right now they have to each be manually selected in the explorer or on screen.

Add a warning prompt before deleting a line if it has elements drawn in the profile view.

This warning would be useful to avoid loosing work done in profile views.

Add option to find 3D Linear Elements when cutting XS sheets

Right now it seems cutting XS sheets always finds meshes in the 3D model, but it won't find 3D Linear Elements. I can use Linear Templates to make sure everything gets found, but it'd be nice to have a toggle/option when placing the Named Boundaries.
