Surface Template - "Process Corridor" similar tool

Just add the function to process the template again so it can be updated. This is a major issue when using surface templates with clipping boundaries. If I change the clipping boundary (a simple shape on the 2D model), I have to delete and reapply...

Ability to Synchronize ITL to a Master ITL

Either add ability for multiple users to be in the same ITL and save the information. At the moment we run a separate ITL for segments of a project which leads to slight differences to similar items. It is cumbersome to use the template library or...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

When looking at point controls/parametric constraints in Corridor Objects, highlight affected point(s) in dynamic XS view.

The legacy corridor modeler would put a white crosshair in the XS view on the specific point being manipulated when the corresponding point control was selected. I'd like this same functionality in the dynamic XS view.

Being able to delete more than one point at a time within template creation.

Currently, you can click the delete components within templates and draw a line through any component(s) to delete it(them). It would be nice to have a similar function to delete points by encircling them so you do not have to delete them using th...

Allow negative surface depth for Overlay Components

It is helpful to have corridor overlay components that follow the surface for the bottom option, and follow a set distance above the surface for the top option. This was achievable in PowerGeopak SS10 by inputting a negative number for the surface...
