Infill grading tool

Provide a tool to quickly create infield gradings. When creating infield gradings, often we only to include part of a geometry element instead of the entire element. Because the terrain from element tool doesn't have the option to only import part...

Civil Cell Creator/Editor

Develop an improved Civil Cell Editor user interface. Similar to Inroads Template Library. Add features and components, define parametric constraints, create terrain/mesh. Include explorer functionality to edit individual features/components.

Reattach Corridor on linear templates

Reattach corridor was recently disabled for linear templates and the only way to edit such corridor is to create new one from the scratch.

Surface Template - Vertical offset

When working on sites and parking lot, sometimes we create a grading terrain to construct the slopes and low points than apply to it the pavement surface template. To model the sidewalks (think of a parking lot island) we create a clipped terrain ...

Expand range options of Horizontal Feature Constraints

Horizontal feature constraints are a huge benefit to streamlining corridor modeling and tying design intent to civil geometry. The range options (-, 0, +) are pretty limited and often trigger components to behave improperly. Adding more options to...

enhance ORD Cross section to have same capabilities as Clip Volumes (for Point clouds in particular)

For now ORD Cross sections have limited capabilities compared to MS Clip volumes. Request is that ORD cross sections do inherit full capabilities of MS Clip volumes, including capability to define a thickness for point clouds and project the Point...

Apply Surface Template by Selection Set

I would like to be able to apply a surface template to multiple terrain models at once, either by a previously-selected selection set, or by selecting one or more terrain models within the tool itself. In the attached image I would like to apply t...

Ability to create a 3D ruled element when two gradings cut each other

When two gradings cut each other, for example mine corridor grading and a lateral ramp grading, you can use the Define target aliasing tool to use one of the two gradings as a target for the corridor containing the other grading to obtain the 3d l...

Add ability to adjust Template Drop "Interval" when using "Apply Linear Template" Tool

We need the ability to adjust the Template Drop "Interval" when using the "Apply Linear Template" Tool. Currently this option is only available for Templates which are attached to Corridors, but we need to also have it available for the "Apply Lin...

Challenges when different template components/features share the same name but with different assigned feature definitions

Suppose you have a corridor with two different template drops. The first template has a component called "pavement_left" with a feature definition "pvmt_ friction _course". The second template has a component also called "pavement_left" with a fea...
