In Dynamic Sections, add width and cross slope for top of components to pop up window when hovering on components.

In SS2 InRoads Roadway Modeler we used to be able to see component slopes and widths in a pop-up window when hovering on components. This allowed us to quickly test that new point controls (or parametric constraints) were working as intended. It's...

Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...

Survey Decorator for Attributes

It would be wonderful if we could have the ability to toggle on and off survey decorators for Attribute Pairs and be able to configure them in settings just like the other decorators.

Standard Report Formatting

We use reports generated in the Civil Reports Browser to export reports that go to contractors in the field. We often run into issues with the formatting of the report not being set correctly. This problem is compounded by the fact that formatting...

Have Sight Visibility Lines also created as 2d Geometry so users can visually inspect/present failures

Currently sight distance analysis results are purely 3d extended objects that only offers a limited amount of functionality to determine visually why a failure is occurring. Adding 2d geometry representation to these objects would allow users to p...

Ruled Copy Enhancement to Complex By Element Tool

There is currently not a way to create a ruled copy of an element when using the Complex By Element tool. Being able to create a ruled copy of a range of segments and curves into a complex element with a different feature definition would be a hel...

Ability to assign name and/or number to horizontal geometry PC/PT/PI/CC/etc

Or maybe auto-assigning sequential number with the ability to add a prefix based on Feature Definition? Some clients require labeling the horizontal geometry points with a name/number that coincides with tables/reports. This applies to roadway geo...

Want a warning when detach a reference file used by civil labeler with element association

When a corridor is based on an alignment from a reference file we get a warning when we try to detach the alignment reference file to minimize the chance of breaking the connection between the corridor and it's source alignment. Can we similarly g...

Modify the LLS part when placing a turnout.

Currently one could add an LLS part on a turnout. Unfortunately this is a standard value. Sometimes, when creating a horizontal geometry, it is necessary to ''shorten'' the LLS part (aka to place a fewer amount of long sleepers that a standard LLS...

Create a tool that constructs transitions between different types of rail sections

Sometimes in track design, one must use different types of rails, say 60kg and 50kg rails. One could weld them and grind them together but this is a crude method. In Sweden they use what is called a transition rail, which in principle contain a sm...
