Allow for Hydraulic calculations and profile creation while using tap nodes
Tap nodes are incredibly useful but do not allow for hydraulic modeling or for profile runs. I'd prefer to use tap nodes over transitions because they are easier to use and do not break trunklines into segments. This would help with profiles, pipe...
Provide ability to place a 3D sign panel in a design model with the size and design from the sgn file. Transoft's Guidesign program has this ability as an example.
There use to be the ability to create Vertical Event Points. This appears to have been removed in that the Event Point List is now singular and tied to the Horizontal Alignment. The old capability (now removed) allowed things to be annotated in th...

[Frame Annotation] For Collision free leader Add Option to Trim the Mainline Leader line
Currently in the frame annotation (Is Top Frame) if the Annotation with Collision free option turned on have a negative bottom margin defined so that the leader start before the mainline leader ends, the mainline leader needs to be trimmed from th...
DU conduits external wall controled by Feature Symbology
We have the option to define a template to pipes external walls, but only through the feature definition. For all other elements of the pipe, OR allows for feature symbology. From my experience, symbologys work better and are more constant.
Civil Labeler - XS Label height difference between centerline and curb or other key-point
We need ability to label height difference between centerline and curb or other key-point in our type XS. Or ability to label curb or other key-point height relative to centerline.
End Conditions automatically include an interval at the point in which cut/fill meet.
I'm surprised ORD doesn't automatically include an interval at the point in which cut slope becomes fill slope or vice verse. MX did a great job at this but without this function earthwork slopes aren't correct and give strange results. It's not p...

Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment
Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...
Point Control lock to to start and lock to end option should honor the corridor start and end limits
Actually , the lock to start and lock to end stations are defined by the start and end of alignment or feature the corridor it is based on. This makes the point control handles (in the 2d view) to be outside the corridor limits when the corridor i...
Add ability to Target Alias and clip a Conical Slope
The conical slope feature is very useful for model detailing. We use these often at bridge abutments. It would be helpful if we could target alias these features and also clip them.
