Coupling between horizontal and vertical regrerssion lines

A very problematic area is the coupling between horizontal and vertical regression analysis. Generally speaking, one must create a horizontal regression line first, create regressed elements, couple them together in a complex geometry and then pro...

Equilateral turnouts as a separate element with its own geometry for both main and deviating track

Currently, in order to create en equilateral turnout, one needs to recreate one of the branches (with exact geometry) and then add the branch part. This process has a lot of inconsistencies and sometimes results in unexpected geometries ( transiti...

See Coordinates of Objects in Model Space

Say if I had pre-cast units (say rectangular for ease of the idea), you can see the coordinates of the 4 bottom corners (or other named points) of the pre-cast unit if I click on it. This would show up in model space view as shown: https://imgur.c...

Openroads Drainage - HGL versus Headwater Analysis for Headwalls Inletting into a Storm Sewer System

Many times, a stream needs to be drained into a storm sewer system via a headwall. When this occurs, two analysis should be considered: The headwater at the headwall (the mechanics of the water getting into the pipe at the headwall). Generally KYT...

SUDA - Spread Slope

Make it easier to manage longitudinal spread slope. It's nice to input the slope in the properties per node, but consider making it integrated to the gutters used during bypass flow drawing of gutters.

Bulk editing of labeler definitions

There is no means to bulk edit Labeler Definitions. For example, if the Element Templates are moved or renamed then every single label has to be manually opened and a new element template then must be selected. This is very time consuming.

Export to DWG: Improve and SIMPLIFY

Nowadays, it`s very, very and I can`t stress this enough, difficult to generate a dwg deliverable package for clients. Our market (Brasil) is dominated by AutoDesk, so dwg is a standard. We work on infrastrucure and have some really complex plan l...

Annotate intersecting alignment point in cross section

I would like to see OpenRoads have the ability to annotate intersecting alignment on cross sections. The attached images illustrate what I am looking for.

Add the ability in Civil Labeler to label the side without requiring an offset value.

I need some additional settings to label the side without a value so that I can annotate my plans as required. The text favorite settings for “OpenRoads Plan Annotation Fields-Point Offset” does have settings to use a suffix to label a “Right” or ...
