Create 3D points from rails when creating regression line from rails

Currently, when one uses the create regression line from rails tool, the points that the program creates are 2D, in other words they contain only X and Y, not Z. It would be nice to create points along with the regression line that contains also i...

Being able to add/remove references that are stored inside cross sectional saved view

Rather than creating a new cross sectional named boundary, it would be convenient for the saved views to synchronize with 3D reference window and level display. There could even be a feature to toggle this feature on and off for a saved view.
