Ability to control the cl profile (in a template/corridor) by vector offset method from adjacent corridors on either side.

I would like to control the elevation of my centerline point (point in template) to be controlled by a "vector offset method" by selecting to points (corridor feature) in two corridors that running parallel.

Incorrect arc radius for turnout outer curve switch.

For turnout annotation, we need to add turnout with LLS Extension from the library. I know that it is possible to add LLS radius value for a defined curved turnout in the library, but for a complex project where there are a lot of curved turnouts ...

No subtraction of sleepers from ballast in corridor report

Corridor report does not subtract the volume of sleepers we added to the model from the ballast. I propose to add in the next version of ORD the possibility to subtract in the ballast the added sleepers.

No possibility to set the lower limit height of the profile

When creating profiles using ,,Named Boundary”, I cannot set the lower height limit of the profile. I propose to add in the next part of ORD setting the lower height limit if we want to make one drawing sheet from profile. This would help with the...

Profiles and Sections with no sheets

I am going back to the SS2 versions. I would like to see an option to produce 1 profile for the entire alignment. Give it the station range and produce the profile in Microstation with an option to annotate The same for Cross-Sections. Station Ran...

Fix/Bring back "Place Cell along Element" tool.

This tool was very useful for placing cells such as "raised pavement markers" at set distance intervals along very long stretches. Without this tool, plans involving tasks such as these, especially in transportation plans, take much longer.

Simplify Civil Cell tool

Civil cells contain horizontal and vertical geometry. In practice, typically the vertical design is unique for each placement instance of design features that could utilize civil cells, even though the horizontal geometry is similar or varies para...

Allow us to define seed files when using Feature Remapper

When files are upgraded from SS10 to ORD, it's important that we use the client's ORD seed file. I would be nice if the remapper would allow us to select an ORD seed file to use when upgrading ss10 dgn's instead of upgraded dgn's being based on th...

Adding Japanese Cubic Parabola

OpenRail Designer seems to have Japanese Sine spiral type added from the formula used in Power RailTrack. However, there seems to be nothing similar to Japanese Cubic Parabola, which is based on a different formula from Japanese Sine.
