Add ability to Target Alias and clip a Conical Slope

The conical slope feature is very useful for model detailing. We use these often at bridge abutments. It would be helpful if we could target alias these features and also clip them.

Dynamic Settings should use Accudraw like interface rather than HS, DL, XY etc keyins

Accudraw intelligently interprets direction from the last input point. There would be no need to enter + or - on slopes as you move the cursor and lock in direction/distances. The keins would not be necessary if the template editor functioned simi...

Provide a property for Corridors that shows the associated ITL

Corridors may use a variety of template drops that come from a non-default ITL (i.e. the one defined by the configuration variable CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY). A property of the corridor could be shown that identifies any of the ITLs associate...

Point Control lock to to start and lock to end option should honor the corridor start and end limits

Actually , the lock to start and lock to end stations are defined by the start and end of alignment or feature the corridor it is based on. This makes the point control handles (in the 2d view) to be outside the corridor limits when the corridor i...
