expanded temporary dimensioning in dynamic cross section

I would like to be able to use a temporary horizontal dimension on any graphic that shows in my dynamic cross sections. Currently, we are only able to dimension the corridor we selected for xsecs. In my case, I have many adjacent corridors and sit...

Test Null Points in ITL Testing Section

Many templates utilize null points to feature constraint or parametrically move to influence display rules within templates (switches). The ability to move those null points to see how they influence template display rules within the testing end c...

Notification/warning if alignment doesn't have active profile.

If an aligmment has a vertical profile, can we please ensure that it's active. The profile creation process is labourious in this software, and to find out that your profiles are empty at the end of this process as there weren't active isn't great...

Move Description Separator and Attribute Separator from the Survey Settings to the TIW.

Currently the Description Separator is in the Survey Settings. Description Separator and Attribute Separator should be in the TIW. (Text import wizard). I will like a prompt to set the Description Separator just before you import a file.

Surface Template - Vertical offset

When working on sites and parking lot, sometimes we create a grading terrain to construct the slopes and low points than apply to it the pavement surface template. To model the sidewalks (think of a parking lot island) we create a clipped terrain ...

Show Projected 3D Cuts when using the Project Run Tool

If we project the profile runs to centerline, we lose the ability to show the utility crossings generated by the 3D cut at the pipe centerline. We can add a 3D cut at the road centerline, but often the crossing utilities are not in the same locati...

Ability to lock Parametric Constraint Start/End to XY or Stations

There are many different situations where users may want Parametric Constraints to be locked to specific stations or XY locations. An additional column in Corridor objects with this option would be very valuable for users to identify and control d...

Use parametric cells for creation and management of sign structures and sign bridges

This would be very similar to the way that OBM creates and manages bents, columns, footings, etc. This would allow for more rapid population of custom vertical sign items in our 3D design environments. By this I mean items of different sizes, span...

Tabular profile annotation to include speed table values

As a light rail design engineer I want to produce profiles with a lot of information to be able to check a maximum amount of information on a single document.On critical information for light rail design is the maximum speed. This is because light...
