Split Cross Sections if Elements in Model Extend Outside of Default Width.

Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

Background for Civil Labeler

The civil labeler is a very useful tool for creating text labels with different boundaries. However, in several cases, the label that we need to create needs to be on top of other elements. Currently, the only way to create a background of any col...
