Remove length restriction in offset geometry command

Please remove the restriction that makes it impossible to make the offsetted element longer than the base element. It is normally the direction that is important and the length can be edited afterwards. Otherwise add an opportunity to remove the r...

profile annotation - parabola dimensions as linear annotation and not drawing model annotation

presently parabola dimensions are in drawing model and not in the linear profile annotations, this make them NOT dynamics and always need to be refreshed. By making them in the linear annotation they could be more dynamics.

RM BRIDGE Line Integrals Enhancement

I have tried using the line integrals for shell elements in RM Bridge, but the results are not accurate by around 10%. This is not acceptable. I was told by Ana Carla that the linear integrals results come from Gauss points integration, but I do n...

Civil Cell dgnlib - Sort by name rather than date created

Currently Civil Cells are sorted by date created rather than by name when loaded from a dgnlib. This makes it very difficult to sort these. Oddly, when they are within a file (where the civil cell is "living") they sort by name.

Ability to Include Profile when off setting 2D Geometry

It would be much more intuitive and beneficial if there was an option to "include" the profile of a geometry element when using the Offset Tools. Currently, the workflow is to offset the 2D geometry, and then copy the Profile from the reference ge...

Wild card for Attribute Name in Text Favorite

Some survey software put out attribute names that include the code (e.g. Note_CURB, Note_Pole). It would be highly beneficial to have the ability to use a wild card when calling out the attribute name in a text favorite (e.g. NOTE*).

Ability to Annotate Angle between Tangents

When placing an "angle point" in between 2 tangents in track, we need the ability to annotate what the angle value is between the 2 bearings.

Define Template Library Name and Location from Workset creation

Add capability to define Template Libray's Name and Location through Workset creation. See attached image. This information could be populate Workset.cfg file.

Survey Closed Shape Information

I need a closed linear survey element to populate the area in the element information. I'm wanting to create a civil label that will place the area of a closed shape. As far as I can tell, this will work except with survey elements.

Allow superelevation lanes to follow a separate control line

In the old Geopak we could create superelevation shapes to follow a profile grade line (we called this a "PGL Chain". In locations where the lanes transition offset, this helped us to see that the lanes transitioned offset while still following st...
