Allow Vertical Geometry Stationing (Profile Annotations) to Reflect Correct Horizontal Chord Definition Stationing

This would be useful for designers working on a project in which chord definition is the client's standard. Currently OpenRail does not correctly annotate the stationing in our profile sheets. The stationing displayed by OpenRail is correct in arc...

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.

Horizontal and vertical regression values displayed in mm

Reporting horizontal slues and vertical lift/lowers interactively in the plan or profile model always displays as per the working unit, which I have set to metres. It would be useful to display these values in millimetres

Include info about side/hand of turnout from the tip of the turnout (Point 1) looking towards the toe (point 2)

Especially in reports but also in models we need to add information about turnout type including a letter showing towards which side looking from point 1 towards point 2, the branch is oriented. As it is now turnouts with Leading orientation will ...

Ability to edit Annotation Groups in any model

It's a little cumbersome to keep going back and forth between models when developing annotation groups. An alternative could be to be able to select the geometry that is shown as the example when in the annotation group manager.

Add ON/OFF toggle option to Civil Labeler for Arrow Head

Just like you already have the option to toggle on and off a Box Frame or Text Divider around a label and the option to have a leader line or not, we would find it very useful to have the option to toggle ON/OFF an arrowhead.

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...

"View Readable" annotations respects view rotation or ACS

The "Text View Readable" option for Civil Laballer a nd Annotation Manager/groups respects only the model Active Angle. Refer to my case CS0042880 for more info. It should be a dynamic function that always respect the view, so no matter from which...

Horizontal Geometry tool similar to the Site Layout

Site Layout has two geometry elements really easy to use: the polygon and the drivepath. I want them to be on the horizontal geometry tab in a simplified way, with no site layout objects options (side, slopes, max elev, ...). Just the geometry and...
