Add Vertex Option for Labeling Points

The current capabilities allow a selection set of points to label. But a selection set of a linear element labels its centroid. We need the ability to label the vertices of a linear object as points. This would need to coexist with the capability ...

Add the ability to perform evaluation and branching within Labeling tools

Before Survey Annotation tools were available within Open Roads, we used many VBA Feature Macros to generate all survey labels. As we were developing these, we realized that we could build some QA/QC checks into our code. For Example, we shoot sto...

Allow assignment of VBA Macros by Feature Definition instead of by Alpha Code

In InRoads, multiple alpha codes assigned to a single Feature all shared the same custom codes and other survey settings. Having to duplicate any VBA Feature Macros to every alternative Alpha Codes complicates maintenance and is a source of uninte...

Ability to Hard-Code Precision and format for Station, Angle, Direction, etc. in XML reports

Using XML coding, we can control the precision of items for linear measurements and area measurements, bypassing the precision set by the user. This allows us to provide a more consistent report output. Currently it is not possible to do similar o...

Zoom button with CivilAccudraw

It would be useful to have a zoom button (toggle) added to CivilAccudraw to automatically zoom to location of selected point. Example: type a station and it will zoom to that station. And maybe with capability to zoom 2D only or on multiple views ...

Ignore Specific Survey Observations

InRoads had the ability to ignore specific survey observations. If ORD had that same capability that would be fantastic.
