Custom Linestyles Drawn in a Profile View do not scale

When Drawing a Custom Linestyle in a Profile view. The linestyle is scaled with the vertical exaggeration. This makes the linestyle unreadable, and therefore cannot have custom linestyles in profile view unless re-drawn in the drawing model, which...

Annotate Slope between 2 Linear Geometries in Cross Section

2 x 3D linear geometries are created with the existing terrain. In cutting cross section, 2 points are displayed in a section. However, the slope value between 2 points are not able to annotated under annotation group.

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.

Drop Complex Status alignment but keep FD

When editing vertical alignments. When I want to edit a complex vertical alignment by adding or removing elements I usually use Drop Complex Status because I find it easier to edit those single elements than edit apart and then use Complex Redefin...

Transition Length for Parametric Constraints

When using parametric constraints to transition between default template values and the desired value, a separate parametric constraint is often required to control the transition length. (ex. Default to New, New to New, New to Default) An optiona...

Update GUI for Editing Template Transitions

I find the interface for editing template transitions archaic and difficult to understand for new users. Is this something already in the works for development?

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.
