Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...

Ruled Copy Enhancement to Complex By Element Tool

There is currently not a way to create a ruled copy of an element when using the Complex By Element tool. Being able to create a ruled copy of a range of segments and curves into a complex element with a different feature definition would be a hel...

Make Plan by 3D Element tool create Geometry with "Active Profile" to be usable

Unlike the OpenRoads v8i functionality for this tool, Plan by 3D Element does not create Geometry that has an Active Profile and therefore can't be used for the majority of functions users want by default, namely Point Controls (in ORD and OBM Dec...

Add ability to dual code survey points as one single point similar to InRoads Survey (add option to avoid overlapping annotation on dual coded points)

The biggest drawback to creating multiple points in ORD vs one single dual coded point in InRoads survey is overlapping text in annotation/labeling.

Improvement of the "Geometry Connector" to simplify for the user

Suggested improvements: Automatically fill in the correct radius of transition curves/clothoids. Make an option somewhere (civil design file settings?) to select if you want to give transition curve values "by length" or "by constant". If you choo...

Create a civil label that easily labels the slope of a terrain model

This label should function similar to the analyze point and analyze between points that are already available but we need to be able to control the display of the output for sheeting.
