Apply cut/fill annotation to surface templates

When creating a cut/fill End Area Volumes table on cross sections, the annotation does not work for surface templates. If there is no corridor in the cross section, it will not even place an EAV Table. The cut/fill EAV tool works and displays the ...

Add functionality to LBS to handle round variable column definition and analysis/design

Currently, if a bridge is modeled in OBM using variable columns with a round cross-section, that column cannot be accurately transferred to LBS, nor can a variable-round cross-section be defined, analyzed, or designed within LBS. This is a big hol...

Improve drawing annotation management

Sometimes we apply more than one drawing annotation to the same model. It would be good to have a model manager view with all the applied annotations group so that we can disable, remove or add. That way we could select what we want to remove inst...
