Create 3D Automatically should inherit elevations from civil points if you draw a civil line and snap to the points

For detail grade areas it would be nice to place points in plan view and snap lines to those points. The lines would have annotation groups assigned to them to label the slope and distance between the points. Grades could then easily be tweaked by...

Element Annotation - White Space Management (manage modification) for Lines

The Element Annotation is incredibly powerful (and fast) but the lack of ability to move the leader (as you can with the civil labeler) is a critical issue. Please add the ability to "stick" or snap the line to the text when the text is moved. The...

Annotate Height/Offset difference from Multiple Stratum in Cross Section

Currently, Drawing annotation for Cross Section is only available for Ground Z and (design) Z. If there are multiple stratum and terrain models, no direct option to annotate the height/offset difference from design to other stratum, or stratum (te...

Allow Annotation Groups to use "Place Text Along" from MicroStation

For a plan annotation group, the ability for annotation text on arcs/curves and spirals/transitions to be placed to follow the geometry centreline curvature. The present options only allow the text to be placed as a tangential/perpendicular straig...

Ability to define non-uniform cross section named boundaries

The ability to define the location and width of cross section named boundaries that are not uniform along the length of the project. For example, regular sections might be 500 feet wide but some areas require wider sections for ramps, side roads, ...

Linear Template - the BSplines warning is not helpful

When you place a Linear Template on a splined element a warning is generated which requires user interaction to dismiss: "Warning: The base geometry selected for this corridor contains B-Spline elements for the horizontal Transitions. Consider rec...

Reflect template for template drop

It would be very helpful if we could reflect a template while assigning it to a template drop. Templates currently can only be placed in the direction they were created, from template origin "out". This requires a duplication of templates, as sepa...

Annotate Horizontal length along straight on profile

Requirement is to annotate horizontal length of straight on profile (station end - station start). It is available in frame annotation but not along linear so annotations don't match. Only the slope length can be annotated along the linear
