Normal/parallel offset in vertical profile

In ORD it is possible to do a Profile Offset Transition. This methode makes a vertical offset. In case of a slope, the difference between the vertical offset and the normal/parallel offset is different. For large slopes, this is differences is too...

Make the Drainage Catch Basin Grate Perimeter and Open Area variables reportable

Some DOTs require input of an exact values for catch basin grate open area for orifice flow and catch basin grate perimeter for weir flow. ORD would consider these as calculated values, not inputs. These are not ORD outputs and are hidden from the...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

need to "kick" element templates

It appears that we need to 'nudge' or 'kick' element templates to find correct level and therefore symbology in 2024. It's not auto populating when we select an element template. We have a section line linestyle tied to a level tied to an element ...

Offset Horizontal Regression from Points

The ability to use an offset to create a single line alignment based on a regression line that was created by points. This ability would allow the user to create a centerline alignment based on monuments/survey points located a specified distance ...
