Allow flow arrow density adjustment similar to contour lines

All the current products anchor their surface data in triangles, and allow different types of visualizations to happen. For instance, you can choose to show major and minor contours as needed, and they do not change the way the triangles actually ...

Dynamic Cross Section Enable Showing Elevations at Selected Template Points

Similar to the commands like "Place Temporary Vertical Dimension", have a Right Click command to enable showing the temporary elevation of a specific template point selected such as a Ditch Flowline template point, existing surface at EOP template...

Change Linear Template Reference

You can attach a corridor to a new reference but not with a linear template. Either make this tool also work for Linear Templates or create the ability to do so some other way.

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...

Add BETWEEN values to display rules

When using display rules Type it would be useful to have an option of values between A-B, not only >, = , and >=. This way you can choose between multiple versions of a component. Example absolute horizontal 0-1 Curb type F, 1-2 type A, 2-3 ...

Generate 2D Closed Shape from Corridor Component or Other Mesh

It would be extremely useful to have the option to generate a 2D shape of the top planar surface of a 3D component that updates as the corridor changes. This would be similar to how corridor points can already generate a 2D line if specified in th...

Description Fields for Corridor Inputs

For the modeling and model review process, it would be helpful to have Description fields for common corridor inputs, such as Parametric Constraints, Point Controls, etc. that can be easily discovered using the Corridor Objects tool.
