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...

Civil Cell dgnlib - Sort by name rather than date created

Currently Civil Cells are sorted by date created rather than by name when loaded from a dgnlib. This makes it very difficult to sort these. Oddly, when they are within a file (where the civil cell is "living") they sort by name.

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...

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.

Ability to Export/Import Alignment With ALL Parts

Currently, the only way to export/import alignments appears to be using LandXML. Currently this does not appear to allow Exporting and Importing Event Points that are part of an Alignment. Since DGN's can be corrupted, there needs to be a method t...

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...
