The ability to easily convert smart civil annotations to plain text will make it much easier to share annotations with other disciplines in DWG format. Also, sometimes we just do not want smart annotations within our drawings. Currently have to do...
Calculate Component Quantities for Linear and Surface templates
To get the component quantities and document them, it is not possible to get a table for linear templates and surface templates as quick and easy as with the corridors.
- Corridor. You can go to Explorer, OpenRoads Model, right click in a corrido...
Configuration to point to template library folder location
it would be helpful if there was a way to set a configuration variable to point to a folder (instead of a specific itl file) when the template library is opened. Our frustration with pointing to a specific file is that the first person to open the...
Add "Make Active Profile" checkbox to all element profiles tools
Every command in the vertical group in the geometry tab should have a checkbox inside to automatically make it the active one. This way the user won't have to open the profile in a view and select it. Pretty simple and would save a lot of work..
As an MX user, we had the ability to lock stationing to an xy coordinate in an alignment. Please add this ability in ORD. An example use would be as follows: the user has a complex horizontal alignment, vertical alignment, and wants to append a ta...
I would like to create labels using the civil labeler that all have a rectangular frame with a fixed width. Currently, the frame width is based only on the width of the text favorite and whatever offset is specified. I would like the ability to sp...
Enable the “Zoom” feature within the Survey Field Book
Within the Survey Field Book of ORD, the right-click context menu offers a “Zoom” option. This should, I presume, fit all the selected survey features into view. It doesn’t work but would be very useful if it did. (Please see the attached image)
I don't believe we can select the limits of the approach slabs when running the deck elevations report. Many DOTs require slab elevations to be reported on the approach slabs in addition to the bridge decks - adding this functionality would be gre...
Control the level/feature definition of surface templates selection layer
Currently when you select a surface template in 3D view, a ghost mesh element under the "Default" level appears. I believe this element defines the surface template as a whole. There is presently no way of controlling this element to assign it a f...
It would be useful to have the ability to annotate only part of the horizontal alignment. There are situations where we need to have several different annotation groups along the alignment.
