Plan Sheet Named Boundary trimmed to fit within Sheet Boundary

When placing plan named boundaries, they do not take into account the sheet extents. In curves the boundaries can extend beyond the sheets. Users then would need to go adjust the named boundaries manually after sheet creation, which then causes additional issues with matchline annotation. The request is that the named boundaries would automatically know when they were going outside the sheet boundaries, and trim the named boundary to fit.

    Yes, this is an important reason why we still use a manual drawing production process.The current Name Boundaries are placed along the alignment at a given value ( at every 1km). When the named boundary moves into a curve, the distance between point Start and End is shorter. The plan named boundary shape must apply sheet values but follow the alignment. Maybee the centroid of the Start and end need to be considered.
