Export pier or abutment templates to Functional Component

Often times a small edit is needed to make an existing abutment or pier template match project standards. It is tedious to create a Functional Component from scratch for small edits. It would be helpful to have a tool or button to export a templat...

Feature Lines Similar to Civil 3D

It would be nice to be able to graphically change elevation and slope of an element similar to feature lines in Civil 3D. Made it really quick to create break lines and grade areas without have to go into a profile view and create a vertical profi...

Need ability to define variable wall thickness on conduits

For box shaped conduits, we need to be able to define top, bottom and side wall thicknesses independently. This allows modeling of box shapes which correspond to physical construction.

Automate the assignment of a node's sump offset based on largest connecting pipe's wall thickness

We are looking for a workflow where the Sump depth value can be set to the thickness of the "largest pipe" connected to a node. When the user places a node, if there is an option to set the sump depth to the thickness of the pipe, then it would au...

Add ability to Target Alias and clip a Conical Slope

The conical slope feature is very useful for model detailing. We use these often at bridge abutments. It would be helpful if we could target alias these features and also clip them.
