Custom alignment suffix for station values

The Section View Group styles in the WisDOT standards have the Section View Description embedded into the station value. This means that the Section View Description just needs to be populated for it to display.

1. Select one section view in modelspace > Right-click > Select similar...
2. Ctrl+1 to open the Properties palette

3. Properties > Description
