Geometry manipulator handles on offsets do not overlap with manipulator text with zero offset

Currently when offsetting elements, different manipulator handles appear, however unless you go into the preferences and changes the arrow manipulator size, it is very difficult or impossible to select the trim/extend manipulator handle because it...

When creating a new point in a Survey field book using the “New Point” command, allow an option to hand-enter the coordinates.

When using the “New Point” command for a survey point, the user must screen-pick the coordinates. There are times when it would be extremely useful to hand-enter the Northing, Easting, Elevation.

Ability to make Geometry Profile models indexed DGN models for ease of use & design workflows

Similar to all the other models, we regularly want to go in and out of Alignment Profile models and the current methods of having to navigate to the geometry to access it is very disruptive and inefficient. Also, having these as hidden models limi...

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Survey Field Book Enhancement

Users would like the ability to create multiple field books without the terrain connecting to each. This would be necessary when surveying multiple sites for one given road project. Currently, this is done by importing the data and then going to t...
