In this update an additional CSV export has been made available that details each Communications Messenger with the same cables attached. The details show a listing of all the spans that share the same messenger/cables combination, their ruling span attributes and the calculated ruling span sag acro...

While we don't have good AutoCad Pole Profiles yet, we just added a CSV export that can be used to verify any Pole Profiles that you create.
