Ability to control segment length when triangulating.

We are currently not able to change segment length when triangulating surface. In SS2, you can define a segment length when triangulating a surface, but we cannot find this option in the OpenRoads application. There is a Survey stroking variable, ...

Ability to Hide & Isolate all elements belonging to specific Corridors/Linear Templates

In Openbridge you can untick a Bridge in Explorer and it will hide that bridge in both 2d and 3d models. In OpenRoads, this functionality is very much needed for Corridors and Linear templates (similar to what we have for Feature Definitions). We ...

Profile Superelevation annotation based on Crossfall to a Linear feature

For almost all our projects we require very precise crossfall transitioning at tie-ins to existing and situations at ramps where we project crossfall from one carriageway to another. It is not practical for us to report crossfall and copy the valu...

Selection of named boundary with different associations

TxDOT likes to see driveway P&P’s side by side on a single sheet (see attached example), and when the workspace didn’t have a sheet seed that accommodated this type of configuration we created one ourselves. The main issue is placing both driv...

Ability to print without needing to go through named boundaries

We were previously able to drop a border cell in any file to easily be able to print and now it is not

Copy Lines Drawn in Profile Window to Other Profile Window

In order to correctly design Crossovers, profile information needs to be sketched out between profile windows. This is very difficult without the ability to draw lines in a profile window and then copy them to a profile window for another alignment.

Graphical display of corridor parametric constraints

It would be more efficient to be able to see the station limits of parametric constraints graphically on screen with a control line in plan view and be able to change these stations and values dynamically similar to point controls. The only option...

Create 3D cut volumes with a variable cut offset

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

Accudraw intelligently interprets direction from the last input point. There would be no need to enter + or - on slopes as you move the cursor and lock in direction/distances. The keins would not be necessary if the template editor functioned simi...
