Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment

Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...

Overlap detection in Corridor Objects

I noticed that template ranges can overlap and there is no obvious indication that this is occurring. Ideally over lapping station ranges should highlight in red to draw attention to it.

Add ability to Target Alias and clip a Conical Slope

The conical slope feature is very useful for model detailing. We use these often at bridge abutments. It would be helpful if we could target alias these features and also clip them.

Analyze point

It would be extremely useful to have Analyze Point on every tab by default. That tool gets utilized a lot to evaluate all kinds of civil geometry.

There needs to be a better way to understand the relationships between elements and reference files that are created by snap rules and constraints.

This improvement would use graphic symbols (construction elements) to represent constraint relationships in plan view. For horizontal elements that are snapped, there are the snap glyphs that show that there is a relationship, but there is not a w...

Equal Space Point - Independently Control points after creation

After using the Equal Space Points command, I would like the ability to edit and adjust the offset of individual points which are created. We would also like an option to drop the Equal Space portion of the 'rule' so that we can have station and o...

Retaining turnouts when horizontal alignments are dropped.

Currently when an alignment is dropped (no longer complex) all associated turnouts delete entirely and any geomtery created from these turnoiuts is also deleted. This is a big issue when optioneering, or when working on a scheme with lots of turno...

Turn feature definitions on/off in a reference

If feature definitions are turned off in a file, it doesn't show up when reference and it's not possible to even view without going back into the file. It would be helpful to have the option to turn on feature defintions the same way levels can be...

ONE DIALOG BOX TO MAKE SETUP

ONE DIALOG BOX TO MAKE SETUP. SO YOU CAN SET ANNOTION GROUP, FEATURE SYMOLOGIES, FEATURE DEFINITIONS, ELEMENT TEMPLATE AND SET LEVEL OF TEXT FOR AUTOMATIC ANNOTATIONS. REALLY CUMBERSOME TO HAVE TO GO TO SO MANY OTHER PLACES TO SETUP FOR ONE CODE

Project point elements to nearest XCs

A tool that projects point elements (drainage nodes, boreholes, signs, ...) to the nearest XCs. This could work using named groups just like the new shipped funcion: https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-1208?utm_source=idea_comment_ma...
