Add Create 3d Automatically Options

The Create 3d Automatically in the Feature Definition toolbar has the potential to be really powerful. Add the ability to have other options. The one I would most like to see is "Profile from Surface" based on vertices, locked to start and end.

Move IP to change vertical alignments

Editing the location of an intersection point by just clicking and moving it was possible in PowerRail track - can we have that functionality back as it's a good tool to quickly see changes in alignment when optioneering.
