Display profile rules in plan view

It's difficult to see which geometry elements are connected or ruled via persist snaps in the element profile. Add profile dynamic annotation and elevation dynamic fields to plan view. Add profile persist snap glyphs in plan view to show the conne...

Create 3D Automatically should inherit elevations from civil points if you draw a civil line and snap to the points

For detail grade areas it would be nice to place points in plan view and snap lines to those points. The lines would have annotation groups assigned to them to label the slope and distance between the points. Grades could then easily be tweaked by...

Draw Slope Direction Pattern Tool

We would really benefit from having the "Draw Slope Direction Pattern" tool available in OpenRoads Designer CE similar to what was included with InRoads. I understand that we have the capability to apply "side slope annotation" to corridors, but w...

Organize named boundaries

Allow user to organize named boundaries including moving boundaries between groups and re-ordering within group etc. This would be particularly useful for cross sections and creating end area volumes. Sometimes we have to retrospectively create ad...

Ability to define non-uniform cross section named boundaries

The ability to define the location and width of cross section named boundaries that are not uniform along the length of the project. For example, regular sections might be 500 feet wide but some areas require wider sections for ramps, side roads, ...

Edit Civil Labels

It is cumbersome to delete Civil Labels and place new ones when a simple change is required. Similar to how Geopak Plan View Labeler worked, it would be ideal if you could edit a previously placed Civil Label. Also being able to match a Civil Labe...

Constraint Labels need to come from a list stored in the ITL

To avoid mistakes from typing in a wrong Label Name, it would be powerful to have the possibility to choose an existing Label Name from a dropdown-list in the dialog box when building Point Constraints in a civil template. The dropdown-list must s...
