Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

Skewed key stations

I had a situation where I wanted to model Interstate NB and SB as separate and cut them off of the median cl. I was unable to get the tie slopes to tie to existing ground when cutting cross sections. Adding "key stations" at a skew would resolve t...

Add option to set forward/backward depth and forward/backward display while creating the cross section sheets.

When making named boundaries we were not able to select any settings or seed files that would let us select the options for forward/backward depth and forward/backward display. This means we had to go into each named boundary individually. Its imp...

Design profile view needs to allow annotation of projected geometry element annotation

External geometry projected into the design profile needs to be annotated to better inform what / where they are and assist in design processes like matching instantaneous grade

Use survey elements for point controls

If I have a survey element that represents some existing feature, I'd like the ability to use it as a point control when designing corridors.

Want the Edit Complex Terrain Model to show missing terrains

suppose a Complex terrain is created by combining multiple terrains. At some point thereafter if one of the individual terrains is deleted, if the "Edit Complex Model" tool is used the deleted terrain is simply gone. There's no indication that it ...

Add some kind of optimization setting for "existing ground terrain contour display" to improve performance

We really need some kind of optimization setting available which will improve the performance of OpenRoads when Existing Ground Terrain Contours are Displayed. I believe this setting in Civil 3D is called "Level of Detail" or something. The proble...

Select Multiple Annotation Definitions Simultaneously While Building Annotation Group

While building an Annotation Group, Annotation Definitions have to be selected one at a time in a temporary window. Make the definition selection window persistent, and allow multiple definitions to be simultaneously selected for addition to the a...

Cross Section Annotation for existing and design terrain models

In the created cross sections for the existing and multiple design terrain (surface), we need to annotate the 1) height difference between the terrain model(s); Also, 2) need to annotate the offset (length) from the point to the cutting line. This...

In regression anaylsis, move the text off the regression line

I've attached couple of screen shots to get my point across. When I do regression, the regression line is selected and highlights. The slew/lift (depending if its horizontal or vertical reg) are displayed ,but right on the millimeter text is where...
