Create a button/command that creates a linked 3D model associated with the active 2D model

When we create a new file we often start with a 2D seed with only one 2D model in it. We often would like to have a linked 3D model associated with that 2D model. It would be great to have a simple button that force creates the linked 3D model.

Civil Labeler - Along Reference Line

Currently, we can label an element at a specified interval along that element. However, we like to label elements at a specified interval not along that specific element, but rather at an interval along the alignment. Could we add the option to la...

Surface Templates- Option to create top 3D linear element

Currently, when a surface template is applied there is not a 3D linear element created for the top linear feature. It would be useful to have the option to create the top 3D linear element.

Enable the “Zoom” feature within the Survey Field Book

Within the Survey Field Book of ORD, the right-click context menu offers a “Zoom” option. This should, I presume, fit all the selected survey features into view. It doesn’t work but would be very useful if it did. (Please see the attached image)

Prestressed Concrete Girder Beam End Cuts & Clips

It would be great if we could control the vertical end cut orientation of the concrete girders: Normal (as is) and Vertical (plumb to the world). Also, we often have to clip the corners of girders when bridges are on heavy skew. Would be nice to b...

Support UNC paths and writing a conditional in the OrganizationSetting.cfg file

MnDOT would like to set a network location for the standard libraries. This way every user gets the current design. OpenRoads SignCAD does not currently support UNC paths or writing a conditional in the OrganizationSetting.cfg file. It seems illog...

Include the slope of a terrain into the OpenRoads Modelling/Horizontal/Place Point command from the Geometry command as in Drainage and Utilities/Layout/Place Node.

This would then allow the placement of items that need to be on a slope in an OpenRoads model without filling up the file with a lot of drainage data. An example of this a crash barrier impact attenuator.

unmerge single point tool in template menu

Currently there is a menu option to unmerge points for components, it would be nice to just unmerge a single point from both components and not all the points.

Create Terrain from reprojected reference file elements

The terrain creation tools don't work well when using elements from reference files that are reprojected from other coordinate systems. This seems to be true for many of the terrain creation tools. Some tools don't allow the elements from the repr...

Plan Annotation by station range

It would be useful to have the ability to annotate only part of the horizontal alignment. There are situations where we need to have several different annotation groups along the alignment.
