Finished Grade Elevations on Approach Slabs

I don't believe we can select the limits of the approach slabs when running the deck elevations report. Many DOTs require slab elevations to be reported on the approach slabs in addition to the bridge decks - adding this functionality would be gre...

Add a Geometry Connector tool for Vertical Geometry

Cuurently OpenRail implements a tool called Geometry Connector (similar to Multiple Horizontal element Regression Analysis in Power Rail Track). However similar geometry tool is not available for vertical geometry calculations. It would be possibl...

Compound Curve with Spiral Segments Tool

A geometry tool is needed to easily create a Compound Horizontal Curve with Spiral segments. Having the ability to quickly compute a Spiral-Curve-Spiral-Curve-Spiral between two tangents would be greatly beneficial to the track design work we do. ...

Allow users to see horizontal and vertical alignments while in view only mode.

Wise users open files in read-only mode when they don’t intend to change the file. ORD should promote good file practice to allow us to view geometry when we are in view only mode.

Geometry Overlapping Linear elements.

Whenever you have a Geometry and used shared line (e.g. Lots), There should be a tool to remove duplicate/overlapping lines. Its problematic if we use a special linestyle with gaps and when the two line on top of each other it will look like a sol...

Deed Boundary Tool Enhancement to Allow User to Establish Civil Rules on Created Shape/Boundary

Please consider adding a toggle to the Deed Boundary tool to create civil rules on the created shape, so this boundary can be a ruled boundary. The goal behind creating this as a ruled boundary is to give the user the option to update the created ...

Additional command/tool in Openroads for deleting segments/s in horizontal alignment with profile

This will be helpful especially when the certain alignments are very long, and you only need to trim segments. Currently, the viable workaround is to copy that alignment and use either Project Profile to Element tool to join the vertical alignment...

Improvement of the "Geometry Connector" to simplify for the user

Suggested improvements: Automatically fill in the correct radius of transition curves/clothoids. Make an option somewhere (civil design file settings?) to select if you want to give transition curve values "by length" or "by constant". If you choo...

Add a Reference File Selection Capability in the Profile Model Create 3D Cut Tool

In the Create 3D Cut tool, it would be nice to be able to select which reference file(s) the user would like to use when creating 3D cuts in the profile model. This capability would keep ORD from 3D cutting all attached reference files.
