Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

As part of the profile superelevation annotation, the annotation currently cannot annotate the location where the superelevation is 0%. This would be helpful to show in plans and for designers to easily see the station this point is at.

    Yes please - when engineers are trying to use the software, this is critically important data. It does not seem that difficult for an experienced programming team to accomplish. Ideally, we could even get the ability to input a 'cross-slope of interest', say 1%, and the software could also identify that station for us (i.e. a designer can quickly determine the last station that has 1% minimum cross-slope when considering a catch basin before the flow flips across the travel lanes with the SE). Why make a human do a separate hand calculation to interpolate the 0% or 1% station, when the machine can do that math in milliseconds?
