Vertical curve from element with outgoing slope

When creating vertical curves "from element" it would be really useful to be able to set the outgoing slope (I have not been successful using "civil accudraw" for this purpose...).

Ability to choose named boundary stations from another geometry

Would like to have a checkbox when creating corridors and named boundaries (particular to cross sections) to allow users to choose another geometry to pick start and stop stations. Example, I built an alignment alongside two other adjacent alignme...

Project point elements to nearest XCs

A tool that projects point elements (drainage nodes, boreholes, signs, ...) to the nearest XCs. This could work using named groups just like the new shipped funcion: https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-1208?utm_source=idea_comment_ma...

Use different feature definitions (FDs) within the same complex Element

In Rail track engineering, it is common to have an existing track and a client wants to modify its geometry, but only partially. That means that parts that are changed VS parts which remain unchanged should be marked with different FD. However, on...

Annotate vertical curve info on any alignment, not just the active one

Currently, vertical curve annotation (L, K) is part of the Drawing Model annotation groups and can only annotate the active profile. It would work much better if this was part of the Linear Profile Annotation and could be applied to any vertical a...
