Allow Annotation Groups to use "Place Text Along" from MicroStation
For a plan annotation group, the ability for annotation text on arcs/curves and spirals/transitions to be placed to follow the geometry centreline curvature. The present options only allow the text to be placed as a tangential/perpendicular straig...
Variable that stores Format Options and makes them predefined in a workspace.
Currently as an OpenRoads Designer user, when the user changes the Format Options, the changes are stored on the user’s computer. This results in many different options being used in delivered reports. I would like to have an environment variable ...
Productivity enhancements to Corridor Objects dialog
There are currently some things needed to be added to the Corridor Object dialog to help communicate design intent a bit better to users (especially with Parametric Constraints): The lack of information as to the rules linked to Parametric Constra...
Quick Profile Transition application on fillet being part of complex element
When using Quick Profile Transition (QPT), we need ability to select (apply to) a fillet that is part of a complex element - similar to Alt option (to Pick Components of Complex) for Arc Between Elements > Simple Arc, when applying fillet at PI...

Future consideration
Support use of cell definitions for sleeper placements. Long sleeper sets placed at turnout locations, have variable width so these will still be using existing box shaped sleepers but normal sleepers will be using the cell based definitions. This...
Settings from Design Model should sync all 8 views in the view group
The saved view reference setting "Settings from Design Model" synchronizes the level display (and other settings) from view 1 in the reference file to ALL views in the master file. One efficient method of producing plans is to have a different lev...
Tool that adds vertex at chosen interval to a selected element segments. The "facet" tool is supposed to achieve this, but it is not designed to respect original element vertexes. So it ends up modifing the element path. The tool should work insid...
Improvement of the "Geometry Connector" to simplify for the user
Suggested improvements: Automatically fill in the correct radius of transition curves/clothoids. Make an option somewhere (civil design file settings?) to select if you want to give transition curve values "by length" or "by constant". If you choo...
Ability to add "Folders" or "Categories" in other Libraries
The "Cross Frames", "Connection" and "Connector Angles" libraries have a flat folder structure. It would be nice to be able to add one or more "folders/categories" for the sake of sorting the templates. That ability exists in the "Decks" library.
Plan annotation for side slopes is something really difficult to do in plan drawings. First, there is only one workflow using Annotation Groups for 3D elements (3D side slope annotation is the full name). This make so that I can`t use my elements ...
