Is there a way to 'slide' plan named boundaries along an alignment? And then have the associated profile named boundaries follow?
For example, say I have already sheeted a roadway corridor. Client now requires us to start reconstruction 500 feet at the beginning. I don't want to resheet the whole thing and lose all hand edits or "one-off" annotations in my drawing models. I simply want to slide the whole group of named boundaries to the west 500'.
Is this possible now? If not, it would be EXTREMELY helpful to add. I have wondered this since the inception of ORD.

This is not possible. Plan production with named boundaries have been a major issue for ORD since its release. Many users have even abandoned the use of named boundaries for plan production because of these issues. Currently if the named boundary is modified in any way it will move the drawing model references and disconnect drawing model annotation to elements. Profiles are the most effected by named boundary changes. It looks like Bentley is finally taking notices of these issues and addressing them in the next release. Cross your fingers.
