Fix the contours

Why aren't the proposed contours coming in at the correct elevations? For example, a 400' contour is coming in at 399.8743' and not 400.0000'. In another surface, the true elevations differs. contours will not match. For design purposes, the eleva...

Remove "Apply Classifications to Library" button from Template Tools or make it more difficult to accidentally misclick.

The button as it functions now, is able to edit whole library with one click. One unnoticed misclick can lead to losing hours of work. Could this function be hidden a bit? Maybe under a separate menu "Edit library" or it could have a pop-up explai...

Have LandXML export support b-spline curves as a geometry type

This would benefit users who are trying to export their geometry using LandXML as the export format. Currently, bspline curves in an alignment are not supported by LandXML export and have to be manipulated to export the geometry.

Ability to reference in Navisworks model files

Currently our only option is to bring in Navisworks Simulate models is find the .DWGs that possibly populate it and bring each one in individually. The individual reference option misses out on any files from other software (such as smartplant) su...

Ability to turn on and off geometry and switches by track

Currently OpenRail Designer allows to turn on and off geometry according to FD. However, there are cases where it is more useful to turn on and off tracks by track name, rather by FD. This could help the process of creating drawings faster. Simila...

Add elevation ranges when measuring volume between terrains.

In Geopak, there was a tool under DTM Tools > Analysis > Volumes, where you could specify elevation ranges to calculate the volumes, while also taking into account the volumes between two TINs. You were able to specify multiple contour inter...
