Annotation

Annotation of 3D features only on Xsection

It is usual request to annotate 3D features on cross sections. At point or in frame. It does work when feature is 2D+3D but not if feature is 3D only. That is commong with existing ground and more and more with modelling using linear features (wit...

Add option for suffix (pos and neg) to Slope Format

In format options for slope annotation we can define prefix for positive and negative values. please add the option to add a suffix. This would allow to annotate for example XS Slopes like so: <2.0% this way or 2.0%> the other way

Civil Labeler - Attach Leader to Top Line

We typically show labels with the leader attached to the top line of multiline text. As far as we can tell, civil labeler can only place the label in the center of the text block. Image shows what we need.

Civil Labeler - Add ability to use in Sheet Model

Please add the option to use Civil Labeler in sheet models. For some sheets, there is no readily-apparent need to create a drawing model (e.g. for schematic-type drawings with no dimensions), so we only create a sheet model. Unfortunately, this pr...

Allow Civil Labeler to work with regular MicroStation Smartlines

Currently, Civil Labeler is limited to ORD Geometry/Elements etc. but sometimes we have regular linework drawn as basic MicroStation smartlines in which we need to call out Coordinates and Elevations. Civil Labeler should have the ability to do this.

Update "Coordinate Grid" tool to allow more options

The "Coordinate Grid" tool needs to be updated to provide more options of the coordinate text placement allowing offsets & rotation etc. There should be, at a minimum, the same amount of control as we had with the InRoads tool "Place Coordinat...

[Completed]Element Annotation and/or Civil Labeler Slopes for Complex Lines

It would be amazing if the "Element Annotation" or "Civil Labeler" could provide individual slopes for complex lines in plan view in a seamless automated way. The text favorite I've been wanting to use is "Plan Annotation.Profile Ahead Grade" whic...

Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

As part of the profile superelevation annotation, the annotation currently cannot annotate the location where the superelevation is 0%. This would be helpful to show in plans and for designers to easily see the station this point is at.

Use Annotation Groups to add Hatching / Pattern elements and Dimension Elements

We have several sheets where we want certain lines that have specific feature definitions to have a dimension on the plans. We also have several shapes that we always want to show hatching or patterns appearing on the plans. Right now we have to m...

Field with station range of named boundary

It would be great if we could create a field (text favorite) that would label the station begin and end of a named boundary for an index of sheets layout.
