Find and Replace in Template Library

For example I create a template for a given track section, and then copy this and update the point names for the next track. For this I need to go through each point and change just one aspect of the point name. Given itl files are just a text doc...

Include the ability to use the slope of a terrain when placing a Geometry Point

This would be good for 3D modelling of any item that needs to slope the same as the design surface such as guard fence terminals. This is available within the Drainage and Utilities, but when using this it loads a lot of other information into the...

Retaining turnouts when horizontal alignments are dropped.

Currently when an alignment is dropped (no longer complex) all associated turnouts delete entirely and any geomtery created from these turnoiuts is also deleted. This is a big issue when optioneering, or when working on a scheme with lots of turno...

Use survey elements for point controls

If I have a survey element that represents some existing feature, I'd like the ability to use it as a point control when designing corridors.

Feature Lines Similar to Civil 3D

It would be nice to be able to graphically change elevation and slope of an element similar to feature lines in Civil 3D. Made it really quick to create break lines and grade areas without have to go into a profile view and create a vertical profi...

Correct the 'Thematic Slopes Display Style' to provide a single colour per triangle when displaying terrain triangle slopes.

Some of the older designers will recall the display "Colour-Coded Slopes" within InRoads, where DTM triangles could be shaded a single colour based on their resultant grade. As per the laws of geometry, one triangle could only be assigned one colo...

Forcing Tangency in Geometry Builder by element

The Geometry Builder allows us to force tangent restrictions. In some cases there might be some lines/arcs that are tangent and some that are not. It would be an improvement to have the ability to force tangent where needed instead of on all eleme...
