Does anybody know why Print Organizer has become useless in ORD 2024?

I genuinely don’t know what the developers were thinking but it is 10x harder to use print organizer in the 2024 update. You have to individually add sheets rather than adding all sheets in a file, the weird print style option, which basically locks all sheets to the same printing style (what if I need one sheet in color?). It’s just so incredibly unintuitive now and cumbersome to use. You’re almost better off printing each sheet individually so you can actually see the print properties.

Need Help With Ditch ending

Hello. Does anyone know a simple way to model the end of a ditch as shown in the attached image? Using the standard template, the ditch ends as marked in red, but I would like to create a slope at the end that ties into the existing ground at a 1:1.5 gradient (marked in green). Is it possible to achieve this using Civil Cells, or should I instead use the template to gradually widen the ditch bottom while transitioning its vertical alignment to meet the existing ground?

AI

If you aren't utilizing AI to build programs and macros in your environment you are missing out.

I've had copilot build me several automation workflows that just keep making my job easier...that's the cool part of AI.

On the flipside, the horror of realizing that you are training this AI does mess with your head...although I'm not sure we can stop it...so I'm just trying to roll with it.
