1. - WYSIWYG, true type font in the Text menu. If I want to select, say "Toledo" font, why can't the list of fonts show what it might look like when I scroll through?
2. Import Mr. SID files, so often used by GIS dept. in cities.
3. General GUI graphic upgrade. Without changing tools or functions, why can't the area look a little more up to date, similar to Windows 10, etc., with different background colors than 1990's grey, tiles instead of floating tool icons, and other 2017 look? How can VW be the hippest design program around without a hipper GUI, to match it's logos, etc.?
4. - Not forgotten at meeting, but Landmark needs a drainage tool not unlike the new irrigation tool. It almost seems like the calculation functionality is there with just a few tweaks.
5. - Would like a "handle" to be able to stretch only portions of group of 2D polyline in Bezier mode. My work flow often starts with offsetting several of these for landforms and grading (Eric Gilbey demonstrated this basic technique in a VW video last year) However, the "magic" of grading is wobbling slopes, with some areas stretched to soften slopes, some steeper. Using only off set tool, all slopes are 5 to 1 (or whatever) and it's a pain to stretch each one individually to drag out a slope. Seems this type of functionality is available in NURBS maybe? Could be used in 2D, no?
