Vertical Event Points

There use to be the ability to create Vertical Event Points. This appears to have been removed in that the Event Point List is now singular and tied to the Horizontal Alignment. The old capability (now removed) allowed things to be annotated in th...

civil cell variables with expressions and variations

When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...

Retaining turnouts when horizontal alignments are dropped.

Currently when an alignment is dropped (no longer complex) all associated turnouts delete entirely and any geomtery created from these turnoiuts is also deleted. This is a big issue when optioneering, or when working on a scheme with lots of turno...

The use of regression line/points to report lift information in profiles

Currently there is not functionality to annotated lift information using regression line/points. Have you use another design alignment (in this case it would the exisitng alignment). It would be great to be able to use one data source to report sl...

Turn feature definitions on/off in a reference

If feature definitions are turned off in a file, it doesn't show up when reference and it's not possible to even view without going back into the file. It would be helpful to have the option to turn on feature defintions the same way levels can be...

Ability to have multiple superstructure types in one bridge definition. For example, steel main spans with concrete approach spans is currently defined as 3 bridges

Many bridges have approach spans that are smaller in length to the main spans. For example, a bridge that crosses over a railroad ROW may have prestressed concrete in the approach spans and a continuous steel bridge over the railroad, then the end...

Single Offset Partial/Entire Element creates complex elements with the ability to add/remove tapers

One of the factors prohibiting the use of civil geometry in plan production is that it can often feel cumbersome to implement design changes without 'breaking' your previous work. Let's say you have an intersection designed using civil geometry, a...

Expand Stationing Favorites to allow truncating trailing zeros.

When using any of the labeling and annotation tools, some situations end up with trailing zeros. When users manually labeled such occurrences, they would omit any trailing zeros. Other distance values allow this type of operation, but stationing d...

Civil Labeler with Null Target

Have the ability to create Civil labeler with a null Target. This will give user the ability to create label for features/lines to use from one tool and one source. Further enhancement would be able use an expression that would change the label(ca...

UI: Move Terrain Labeling Tools from Terrain tab to Drawing Production tab.

It is not clear that the Terrain Labeling tools are under Terrain when they are a Plans Production tool.
