Add a property to apply terrain feature type to civil elements.

Set the terrain feature type for template points (breakline, boundary). When creating a terrain from a corridor, this would automatically create the exterior boundary eliminating the need for trimming edge triangles. Provide this same functionalit...

Selection Set Enhancement on Report Survey Elements Tool

In the Report Survey Elements tool, there is currently not a way to run this tool on a selection set of survey points from a field book. When a selection set of points is selected before launching the Report Survey Elements tool, the report only g...

Drawing Model Optional

Creation of the drawing Model is Optional in sheet production in MicroStation. I believe this should be true for civil Plan as well. We should be able to create a drawing seed that does not have the option ON for creating drawing. Most of the Plan...

Combining Properties Menus

Add option to find 3D Linear Elements when cutting XS sheets

Right now it seems cutting XS sheets always finds meshes in the 3D model, but it won't find 3D Linear Elements. I can use Linear Templates to make sure everything gets found, but it'd be nice to have a toggle/option when placing the Named Boundaries.

Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...
