Object Geometry (Edit Point info i DTM View / Edit)

It is now possible to store existing objects in the DTM. Ie existing pipes, cables or any other linear objects. The functions works like this: - Save object to the DTM or create a line inside the DTM viewer. - Give object geometry to the line (diameter, material etc) - Save this line to a group and as object type “object”

Several old functions are removed and other are repositioned into other categories. Categories removed:
