Reattach Corridor on linear templates

Reattach corridor was recently disabled for linear templates and the only way to edit such corridor is to create new one from the scratch.

Allow End Conditions to Seek Terrain at Fixed Elevation Without Point Controls

Currently, OpenRoads Designer does not support a native method for designing an end condition that targets both the terrain model and a specific elevation simultaneously without relying on external geometry such as contour lines or point controls....

Item Types for Parametric cells

Users are asking for item types for Parametric cells. Primarily for quantities reports.We tag each element, but can we expose volumes for each element in a Parametric cell. The most important things are Volume, Surface Area, Length(Column, Pile, C...

Need to add functionality to LBS for struts/web walls between pier columns.

Currently, if an OBM model is defined with a strut/web wall between pier columns, the strut will not transfer to LBS, and there is no way within the LBS substructure design module to add a strut/web wall. This is a hug problem because we have brid...

Allow negative surface depth for Overlay Components

It is helpful to have corridor overlay components that follow the surface for the bottom option, and follow a set distance above the surface for the top option. This was achievable in PowerGeopak SS10 by inputting a negative number for the surface...

Graphical display of corridor parametric constraints

It would be more efficient to be able to see the station limits of parametric constraints graphically on screen with a control line in plan view and be able to change these stations and values dynamically similar to point controls. The only option...

Bring back Active Chain Control or Similar Tool

In GeoPak, the Active Chain Control tool was very useful for selecting a particular chain or alignment and having the location information (station, offset, etc.) be display in a dialogue box. The location information would live track with the loc...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

Civil Cells does not recognize turnout elements

Civil cells does not support turnout or crossing elements. Ability to include turnout and crossings in civil cells, will enable creating civil cells for siding and yard areas.
