We use a federated workflow where our geometry is in separate files, and each corridor is in a single file. We also use the left-center-right modeling concept where pavement corridors are in separate files from grading/end condition files.
In this workflow, if we modify centerline geometry we must open every corridor file to allow it to process and then open every grading corridor file to allow those files to process.
It would help improve efficiency if there was some kind of batch processing routine where I could define a list of files and when I push a button each file is opened and processed. If there was some kind of priority assigned to the list I could set it up in a way that pavement could be processed first, then grading, then any other special grading files, ect.

This already exists. Search "Batch Process" , this tool opens a list of files and processes a keyin script in each file. If a file is opened all changed elements usually process. So a keyin script to save settings and save file may only be needed.
