Parallel snap with Civil horizontal line

Auto-increment Geometry point names/numbers

Some users need to be able to assign unique point numbers. So, when creating a new geometry point, the user should be able to type in a starting point name/number (with or without a prefix) and once they place that point, it should automatically a...

Trace Slope - Line Style - add direction

One issue I've found with the trace slope is that the direction is adjustable (can be down or up) and ORD isn't smart enough to change the direction of the line. This causes two issues: 1) One of your flow directions is going to be wrong, dependin...

Use 3D Element Elevation when using Edit Terrain > Insert Vertex

When inserting a vertex on a terrain using the edit tools, the vertex is put at 0 elevation (if outside the terrain) and at the terrain elevation (if inside the terrain) even if you snap to a 3D element. The current workaround requires moving the ...
