User option for linear stroking when creating terrains while processing field data in 3d files.

It would be very useful to big back the user option for stroking linear elements when creating terrains. This was available in v8i and greatly enhanced our surface models. Right now there is a configuration variable but it can't be set by users. A...

Enable 3D annotation from 2D annotation

It would be advantageous to be able to link 3D annotation to 2D annotation. In order to be able to create stationing as 3D text on an alignment in a 3D model, you currently need to do it manually. It would be desirable if you could link a 2D anno...
