Adding Japanese Cubic Parabola

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 ...

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...

Store vertical/horizontal alignment of low points

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...

Profile by best fit - Curve radius

Request to introduce the ability to create a profile by best fit by defining the radius of the arc rather than its length?

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 ...

Provide Low Point/High Point Information in Profile Table Editor

Lost functionality that was available in Geopak. Helpful to meet specific locations when designing a profile, instead of storing the profile and reading the profile report, or hand calculation of the low and high points.

elevation analysis in profile view

Elevation analysis needs improved within the profile window. Specifically elevation differences. Either at a single station or point, or minimum distances, etc. In the attached screen shot, I would like to know where my minimum distance occurs bet...

Support for station range as option along with distance in Profile Offset Transition tool

Currently The Profile Offset Transition tool allows Distance parameter to select Start and the End of the profile offset element. But this causes some issues with the station of the offset profile if there is a gap at the beginning of the original...
