Multiple Scales For Text/Annotative Items

Allowing multiple scales for text and annotative items or something similar. Especially when working with one survey in multiple files of different scales, it can be hard to get things to show up correctly, even when using the "Master" scale in th...

Switching between referenced OBD models from an ORD file (after attachment).

If multiple bridge options are required, placing these options within the same dgn, but in separate models is a good practice. However, from ORD trying to change which OBD model is viewed (after it's been attached) does not work. It can be reattac...

Add extra Coloum which shows Delta Value in Geometry Report at PC, PT, No Curve PI, SC and CS

Alerts users to the existence of "kinks" in horizontal alignments. These "kinks" are where the back and ahead tangents at PCs and PTs of curves are not on the same bearing. There is a small tolerance built in to eliminate rounding errors.
