Update the Minnesota M1-6M, M1-6a and M1-X4 county shields for 3-digits

MnDOT wants to start using wider 3-digit sizes (22.5"x18", 30"x24" & 45"x36") for some of the county shields within the Minnesota standard in OpenRoads SignCAD. The wider 3-digit sizes are needed for the M1-6M and M1-6a blue pentagon county sh...

Compare real data from a tunnel with its theoretical corridor

Hello. We're building a tunnel and need OpenTunnel to be able to compare the actual data from the constructed tunnel (recorded via scanning) with the theoretical data from the designed tunnel corridor. There are other programs that do this: Istram...

Utility Overhead Conduits/Nodes

Current Limitations Currently, creating overhead conductors between two "Overhead Nodes" (e.g., utility poles) results in a straight-line conduit. In reality, these lines always exhibit a natural sag due to gravity and tension forces. To model sag...

Annotate Slope of terrain between points in Cross Sections

Civil labeler only works for 3D linear features (points). It`s impossible to annotate the slope from the terrain between two points. If you try that, the whole terrain section is selected and the command fails. A great example is a cross section o...

Annotating and Labelling Intersecting Alignment Stationing in Cross Sections

Annotating and labeling cross sections within ORD is missing the functionality to label the stationing of intersecting alignments shown on roadway cross sections. While feature names (alignment names) and elevations of intersecting alignments can ...

Add a tool (or an option to the existing place point tool) to compute the traverse using a deflection angle instead of an absolute angle.

The existing Locate Point tool using the Traverse and Radial methods functionally does something similar, but must have 180 degrees added manually to the deflection angles to get the absolute angle.

Separate vertical alignment model from horizonal geometry

One of my biggest pain points about ORD is if the horizontal geometry is dropped or broken, the vertical is consequently lost as well. This creates significant rework from a design and plan production standpoint (connected named boundaries). One w...

Reassign/Reattach Civil Labels

It would be nice to have the ability to reattach civil labels to a new element or terrain. A good example is for jointing/geometric sheets with a lot of spot elevations. Fairly often a new terrain is created and the spots break and need to be repl...

Ability to Update Annotation Groups

Currently for drawing model annotation groups, if the user wants to update the annotation, they would need to remove the outdated annotation group, which would removal all annotation groups, and then reapply all annotation groups. It would be nice...
