Utility Overhead Conduits- Need Vertical Sag

Can the Overhead conduits be set to apply "sag " curves for models in 3D? which means, we will need to include vertical curves when placing them between 2 nodes (eg. poles); In a real world, the conduits typically have some sag, and not as straigh...

Ability to turn off Mesh (components) in reference files

There should be a way to turn off Mesh (components) in reference files. Currently, if you untick the "Mesh" Feature Definition from ORD Standards in explorer, it only turns off Mesh Components within the active model. The Mesh components that use ...

Improve civil geometry constraints

Provide an option to quickly apply combined horizontal and vertical constraints to geometry elements. Where geometry lines (breaklines) intersect, they need to share a common elevation. The current process requires creating profile intersection po...

Ability to choose named boundary stations from another geometry

Would like to have a checkbox when creating corridors and named boundaries (particular to cross sections) to allow users to choose another geometry to pick start and stop stations. Example, I built an alignment alongside two other adjacent alignme...

add distance between VPI to annotations in profiles

We need this to label our profiles optimally there'd be two values, once the horizontal (projected) distance and once the true (slanted) distance between to VPI's

Ability to differentiate between the different types of Rail Crossover

The crossover function has been retired between schema 9 and 10 in favor of turnout "connections". So it is no longer possible to identify a single crossover with a unique asset IDs. A crossover object should be added that consist of the sub eleme...

Show deflections at PIs even when there is no curve

As a Highway Engineer, I want the horizontal alignment reports to show deflections at PIs even if there is no curve, at least one of the reports so that I don't need to add it manually.

Ability to control the directory opened when importing text files to fieldbooks

Currently, when importing text files to fieldbooks the directory opens in the last used directory. It would be useful to control this behavior so that it can open in the directory where the active DGN is located. This can function similar to the c...

Allow new Line of Sight analysis to be included in Civil Cells

The new Line of Sight tool is a great addition to the visibility toolset, however, automated repetitive checks are still not possible. As the "standard" Line of Sight checks are usually for things like approach to stop lines and fixed objects, int...
