Checkbox to turn on-/off alignments

It would be useful to be able to turn on-/off single alignments. Perhaps with a checkbox in the "OpenRail Model" section in the explorer, just like the ones in the "Feature definition" section in OpenRail Standards. This could probably be handy wi...

Reverse direction of an existing complex element

A tool to reverse the direction of an existing complex element. There is a workaround by complexing the complex element but not an ideal solution.

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...

Annotation Group Definition Copied to Active File when Used

When labeling civil geometry (alignments for example), whichever annotation group that is utilized is copied from the DNGLIB and saved with the active DGN. This is only the case when the geometry being annotated is stored within the active DGN, no...

Issues with Drainage Prompt to compress database

The prompt for compressing the drainage database needs some work: It really should be removed. Salvaging anything marked for deletion but not compressed isn't really feasible in OpenRoads environment. Do not prompt me twice. It should be assumed t...

Allow Assignment to Multiple Alternate Surfaces

There are often points in a template that should belong to multiple surfaces. For instance, we have a point in our rural templates that is part of the top mesh and should also belong to our aggregate shoulder alternate surface and our subgrade sur...

Name individual elements when using Complex by PI

You can name an element if drawn 1 at a time with tangents and arcs. But if you use Complex by PI you can't go back and name your elements to make it easier to report on your geometry.

Add Conduit To Existing Profile Run

It would be very helpful if there was a way to simply Add a Conduit to an existing Profile Run. For example, I have a storm network modeled and a bunch of drawings created by using a Profile Run, but now I needed to add another conduit at the end ...

Export pier or abutment templates to Functional Component

Often times a small edit is needed to make an existing abutment or pier template match project standards. It is tedious to create a Functional Component from scratch for small edits. It would be helpful to have a tool or button to export a templat...
