Being able to put a feature definition on points created around a circular or arc template component.

When using a circle or an arc in a template component, the software is building linestrings on default level in the 3d model. It is possible to turn off these lines if the Null Point Linear Feature Option is set to False in the template feature de...

GIS Interoperability

I would like to see some of the tools from OpenCities, mainly the ability to read a geodata base, integrated into OpenRoads. Since Bentley Map was removed from the Select Series application and not added to the OpenRoads, we have very little GIS i...

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...

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...

Add Generate Transverse Feature from InRoads to OpenRoads

This tool was incredibly useful in creating Finished Grade and subgrade terrains, allowing for quick creation of transverse features to control triangulation and slope transitions in intersections and grading. The fact that the lines could be made...

Ability to use end condition exceptions on linear templates

Being able to use end condition exceptions for linear templates would be extremely beneficial for roadway designers. We often use end condition exceptions to turn off slopes in order to connect external features like ditches to the corridor. Not b...

Flow Arrow from High to Low Point for any Civil/Linear Geometry

In placing drainage node to the carriageway or kerb/curb lines in 2D plan, it is useful to show the flow arrow from high point to low point for the drainage engineer. Currently, the flow arrow is only available in "Terrain", but not civil geometry...
