Profile projection tools for crossfall relative to Target element

In legacy software, we had the option to either project crossfall from one element to another relative/normal to the reference element or relative/normal to the target element. We do not seem to have this functionality in ORD currently (although t...

Join Function in Table Editor Function similar to in Bentley Rail Track Horizontal Check Integrity Box

The join function is not available to join two or more straights with the same bearing that falls under one 'Complex Geometry'. This is especially problematic currently for us as there is currently no way to join two straights (see 'ORD Join Funct...

Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...
