Using display rules can be very difficult when you have nearly identical components on top of one another. We've all tried to eliminate this difficulty by using a ton of different templates, but that can be even worse when conditions keep changing...
So far Openrail designer contains a tool called create 3D cut for profiles. It is very useful when one wants to show cuts from a 3D section across the track. However one can choose only a specific distance from track. There are cases (for example ...
Dynamic Settings should use Accudraw like interface rather than HS, DL, XY etc keyins

It is usual request to annotate 3D features on cross sections. At point or in frame. It does work when feature is 2D+3D but not if feature is 3D only. That is commong with existing ground and more and more with modelling using linear features (wit...
Flood Volumes - Surface analysis between three surfaces
It would be beneficial to have the ability to specify surface math logic - Above Existing, Below Proposed, and Below "Floodplain" (variable plane) to get good floodplain volumes.
OBM has the option to create a deck elevation report parallel to start of the support or normal to the alignment. Bentley should include the option to find the elevation and station of the bent traverse line to not intersect with the railing lines...
Selection of named boundary with different associations
