Ability for Superelevation Lanes to use Crossfall between Linear Features to define superelevation

In many circumstances superelevation cannot be easily defined by superelevation points, i.e. tie-ins to existing crossfall, extension of adjacent carriageway crossfalls, eg. ramps, intersections, etc. In these circumstances users need to use linea...

Put all Drawing models in one dgn when using "One Sheet per Dgn."

When using the drawing production tools and selecting the option to create the drawing in a separate dgn file there is no way of updating the annotation groups in the resulting drawing file. This seems like a completely flawed workflow as you are ...

Add Ability to use Measure Area: Flood tool in cross section drawing models.

The measure Area Flood tool does not work in cross section drawing models. Currently there is no way to calculate the area of individual shapes. This means if there is anything unique on a cross section, we can’t measure it easily. And no one can ...

We need a SINGLE LIST of configuration variables that can be filtered by ALL products and generation

It would be nice if there was a single list of configuration variables so that we don't have to hunt in different product Help documents (microstation vs openroads) to find details of how they are used. Furthermore there seems to be a lot of confi...
