Export alignment in read-only file as LandXML

I have opened an ORD .dgn design in read-only mode. This is not uncommon, especially when using ProjectWise and the file is either at coordination/shared state, or checked out to another user. However, it is not possible to export the alignment us...

Infill grading tool

Provide a tool to quickly create infield gradings. When creating infield gradings, often we only to include part of a geometry element instead of the entire element. Because the terrain from element tool doesn't have the option to only import part...

Show Projected 3D Cuts when using the Project Run Tool

If we project the profile runs to centerline, we lose the ability to show the utility crossings generated by the 3D cut at the pipe centerline. We can add a 3D cut at the road centerline, but often the crossing utilities are not in the same locati...

Update the tool "Create 3D By Slope To Target" to add better functionality when applied to regular 3D MicroStation linework

The tool "Create 3D By Slope To Target" can currently be applied to regular 3D MicroStation linework, but it doesn't work very well at all, assuming due to it's reliance on stroking. It is often much more efficient/simple to create certain design ...

Use parametric cells for creation and management of sign structures and sign bridges

This would be very similar to the way that OBM creates and manages bents, columns, footings, etc. This would allow for more rapid population of custom vertical sign items in our 3D design environments. By this I mean items of different sizes, span...

Detailed Design Report

Currently, the detailed design report in RCPIER only shows shear/torsion calculations for the column. Suggest also including detailed moment, crack control and all other AASHTO checks in the detailed checks so reviewers know which equations were c...

"Export to IFC" exports the active model, not the default one.

The "Export to IFC" tool only exports the default model, not the active one. This is a big problem with OR since in most cases, the default model is the 2D. So we have to have the 3D reference turned on for it to export our objects. We end up with...

Openroads designer annotation groups extend the white space management to all items

Right now only the text element can have the "manage modification" turn to true. This mean that only text will not move when doing annotation. The white space management, or manage modification to placement annotation should be avaiable to all ite...

Need modeling of curved wing walls

Currently in OBM wingwalls can only be modeled straight (and skewed). We need to be able to model curved wing walls, i.e. on a horizontal curve.

When exporting to the IFC, keep a different identification for each item.

When exporting the IFC, each element is identified by a default value. For example, all solids come out with an identification as smartsolid. This makes it very difficult to search for an element in the model.
