Add ability for Overlay/Stripping Top to follow the lowest between component and terrain.

We often need to provide volumes of additional excavation for substandard subgrade material to a certain depth. The easiest way to get this is through the Milling and Stripping functionality. You set the bottom of the component thickness and have ...

Use survey elements for point controls

If I have a survey element that represents some existing feature, I'd like the ability to use it as a point control when designing corridors.

Surface Template - Vertical offset

When working on sites and parking lot, sometimes we create a grading terrain to construct the slopes and low points than apply to it the pavement surface template. To model the sidewalks (think of a parking lot island) we create a clipped terrain ...

Feature Name Override Pick List

When editing points in ITL and applying a feature name override, there should be a pick list of all currently defined name overrides. Right now the only option is to remember what names you have assigned.

Expand range options of Horizontal Feature Constraints

Horizontal feature constraints are a huge benefit to streamlining corridor modeling and tying design intent to civil geometry. The range options (-, 0, +) are pretty limited and often trigger components to behave improperly. Adding more options to...

Temporary Dimension Lines in XSection Views

Currently in the XSection viewer in OpenRoads Designer if you have a corridor or linear template that touches our butts up against another corridor you can't place temporary dimension lines on those components to make measurements if the linear or...

Template Library Folder Configuration Variable

Civil configuration variables exist for opening a default/workset template library (CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY) and for the default path when performing a save as on a template library (CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY_SAVEAS) but when opening a...

Update GUI for Editing Template Transitions

I find the interface for editing template transitions archaic and difficult to understand for new users. Is this something already in the works for development?

Add groups and filters to Parametric Constraints so that I can limit the list to where I am working

Would be nice to be able to group the parametric constraints by what they are, similar to how event points can be grouped. Say I am adjusting pavement depths, would be nice to see only the pavement depth constraints. Similarly, would also like to ...

Add BETWEEN values to display rules

When using display rules Type it would be useful to have an option of values between A-B, not only >, = , and >=. This way you can choose between multiple versions of a component. Example absolute horizontal 0-1 Curb type F, 1-2 type A, 2-3 ...
