External model checking process - by possibly running a report to identify where 3d conduit string lines have been placed - i.e soffit, centre, invert, crown or base, this will ensure all output data of conduits are consistent for construction.

This is useful to enable a) - checks to be carried out, b) - to identify possible conduits that require amending - to align with all others. This will enable consistent and accurate output data to be produced, that can be used to construct from.

Would be nice if the non-indexed profile models and cross section models prevented users from being able to assign coordinate systems. Also would be nice if coordinate systems weren't able to be attached to sheet models either. Since coordinate sy...
