Point on Tangent Annotation Group

This is an enhancement request to recognize that POT's are different from PI's. Presently ORD can not distinguish between the 2 different types of points. We want to use separate labels, "PI" and "POT". Our enhancement request is to distinguish be...

There is no way to easily measure an area within a cross section.

In ORD when you attempt to measure the graphics within a XS View it appears that you get the surface area of the entire cut or fill volume. As a user, I need the specific end area for the element. Presently you have to trace the element with a mea...

Profile projection tools for crossfall relative to Target element

In legacy software, we had the option to either project crossfall from one element to another relative/normal to the reference element or relative/normal to the target element. We do not seem to have this functionality in ORD currently (although t...

Extend 2D profile terrain limits beyond element

The ability to extend a profile's terrain cut using the 2D quick profile tool would be helpful for all profile types - but specifically drainage. I'd like to be able to set a buffer distance that extends existing and proposed surface cuts beyond t...

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...

Improve Geometry Builder interface

Often Surveyors are responsible for generating exi sting alignments from limited data (in plans or collected in field.) We have identified that using the Geometry Builder can be a "wo rkaround" but it is clunky and there are more steps involved th...

Automatically adjust structure Hight to include pipe thickness

it would be more accurate to calculate the structure Height if when a pipe is connected to a structure that the bottom base slab was adjusted to be below the wall of the pipe. this would also make the 3D model look better.

Tabular profile annotation to include speed table values

As a light rail design engineer I want to produce profiles with a lot of information to be able to check a maximum amount of information on a single document.On critical information for light rail design is the maximum speed. This is because light...

"Curve Set" text favorite annotation should annotate entire curve set

Under the Curve Set option under Location, an option for Spiral Left Middle, Spiral Right Middle, Curve Left Middle, Curve Right Middle needs to be added. Ability to annotate the Middle of a Spiral and/or Curve within a Curve Set. These options ne...

Ability to Analyze Elevations in Dynamic Cross Section

Users would like the ability to quickly place a point in the dynamic section view to pull elevation information. It would be nice to have that text remain in place as you move from section to section, similar to the cut/fill volumes between sectio...
