Rename terrains, linear templates, surface templates and other elements by selecting from Explorer list>(right click) Properties

Ability to annotate models over a station range

Currently, the only way to update Annotation is to update ALL or one drawing model at a time. It would be very helpful to be able to select a station range to remove and then update in one action.

A way to manage multiple project ITL files
