Civil Label and Place Label Preview

I think it would be helpful to have a preview of what the label will look like before placing it. Similar to the geopak labeler preview window. And also to be able to select full station, partial station and number of decimal places for stations, ...

Adjust bearing vertically

In order for the place bearing tool to work for as many instances as possible, we either need to be able to adjust the bearing's vertical location due to shim plate placement on an individual basis or else allow for different cells to be used at t...

External Flow Utility Properties for Manholes

Catch basins have the following flow types that can be added: additional subsurface flow (cfs), known flow (cfs), additional carryover flow (cfs), external CA (acres), and external Tc (min). Manholes only have the option of known flow. Known flows...

Make profile active without opening profile view

It would be useful if some of the profile tools (quick profile from surface, profile from surface, etc) had a toggle to allow the profile to be set as active when it is created. This would make it more efficient in cases like when you need to crea...

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Ability to Separate Tangents / Gradients from Adjacent Tangents / Gradients after Alignment Simplification

When making alignment modifications by manipulating tangents (Horizontal Alignments) or gradients (Vertical Alignment) we prefer to limit extents of changes to only one tangent / gradient at a time. This is possible, when alignments are built with...

Reference Terrain model on Civil Cell

I would like to create civil cells that utilize our existing ground terrain model from the survey. Right now, when creating the civil cell, I can't select the existing ground terrain model as a reference. This is problematic as some of the element...

Report Station Equations in Horizontal Alignment report similar to GeoPAK

Horizontal geometry reports are confusing when there are station equations at cardinal points. A few of our surveyors have commented on this and I can see where they’re coming from. I’ve attached three example geometry reports. Their names ind...

Terrains Analyse Volume scenarios toolbar

Instead of a one time thing, create and save the comparison set in a toolbar table. If I want to run again I just need to hit a refresh button for the specifc set. When developing a project, keeping track of cut and fill volumes between design and...

Ability to annotate coordinates of any location in a model

Currently you can annotate the coordinates of an object like a point or a line. I would like a tool to label the coordinates of any location in a model without needing to connect to a point or line. The annotation should support using Text Styles ...
