I would like to see an improvement to the interoperability - Once you "Send To [LEAP]" the bridge model from OBM you are no longer able to modify the bridge in OBM and UPDATE the existing .lbcx file you are working in. I understand that significan...
There was a command in Geopak called Copy Chai
n Parallel that was very useful in creating offsets of survey chains, and creating new points at constant delta elevations. We are
looking for the same function to be added in OpenRoads Designer.
OpenRail Designer seems to have Japanese Sine spiral type added from the formula used in Power RailTrack. However, there seems to be nothing similar to Japanese Cubic Parabola, which is based on a different formula from Japanese Sine.
Create 3D by slope to terrain needs to have the option for the fill slope to be positive and vise versa for cut slope
When projecting a line to a terrain currently the only option for fill is down and cut is up. This needs to be a user selectable option. There are many cases where the proposed surface is above the existing ground yet the fill projection needs to ...
A tool existed in Geopak that could pick out the low point of a cross section to the left and right of centerline and construct horizontal and vertical alignments from that. This essentially automated the creation of a ditch profile along an entir...
Ability for Corridor Horizontal Parametric Constraints to be applied with Reverse Cubic Curves
In our legacy software we could quickly and easily apply a reverse cubic curve tapers for our designs without having to create Geometry and have our lane edges follow that - noting that the Geometry is not actually the required reverse cubic curva...
The ability to set a corridor feature definition that automatically increases the template drop interval in sections with curvature and superelevation
As we transition to using the model as a legal document, we are refining the standards we have for template drops to ensure our model provides adequate information to be used directly in construction. Our standards will require a certain interval ...
