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 cell variables with expressions and variations
When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...
Coupling between horizontal and vertical regrerssion lines
A very problematic area is the coupling between horizontal and vertical regression analysis. Generally speaking, one must create a horizontal regression line first, create regressed elements, couple them together in a complex geometry and then pro...
Equilateral turnouts as a separate element with its own geometry for both main and deviating track
Currently, in order to create en equilateral turnout, one needs to recreate one of the branches (with exact geometry) and then add the branch part. This process has a lot of inconsistencies and sometimes results in unexpected geometries ( transiti...
Ability to group references into folders within ORD
With the ability to add so many references, it would be helpful to have the ability to organize them better. It would be useful to group similar references together in a folder within the reference window. Example being; all utility references in ...

Future consideration
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...
We have the ability to create multiple profiles from multiple surfaces at the same time, but there are occasions where I only need to define a single profile line based on multiple surfaces. It would be handy if there was an option to create a pro...
Openroads Drainage - HGL versus Headwater Analysis for Headwalls Inletting into a Storm Sewer System
Many times, a stream needs to be drained into a storm sewer system via a headwall. When this occurs, two analysis should be considered: The headwater at the headwall (the mechanics of the water getting into the pipe at the headwall). Generally KYT...
Make it easier to manage longitudinal spread slope. It's nice to input the slope in the properties per node, but consider making it integrated to the gutters used during bypass flow drawing of gutters.
