Context Toolbox and Pop-up info added feature

A feature would like to be added by having a control on whatever the user decides to show when you hover an element. In the current OpenRoads designer, it is only limited to both Context Toolbox and Pop-up info or none of those will appear.

Local edits to a template, now out of sync with library.

It would be nice to see what local changes were made, to a template, before Sync'ing to library. It currently notifies user that there changes made, but doesn't show what those changes are. It is difficult to know what changes may have been made t...

Create a button/command that creates a linked 3D model associated with the active 2D model

When we create a new file we often start with a 2D seed with only one 2D model in it. We often would like to have a linked 3D model associated with that 2D model. It would be great to have a simple button that force creates the linked 3D model.

Allow Cross Section Navigator to work in read-only mode

The XS Navigator tool's full functionality is contingent upon users having file read/write access. This requirement seems excessive for reviewers who primarily need read-only access. I suggest revising the tool to accommodate reviewers with read-o...

Ability to set the default printer independently from the Windows Default Printer

Currently the customization options for the Quick Access toolbar only allows for showing the Open, Save, Undo, and Redo tools. Having access to add other backstage and ribbon tools such as Print, Import, Export, etc. would be a much-needed quality...
