Ability to append, join, or combine individual alignments and have it hold the sub alignment stationing, which would create station equations

In Geopak, we had the ability to take individual alignments and create an overall alignment from a subset of alignments and it would hold the individual stationing for each alignment, creating station equations. There is no way to do this in ORD u...

Rename terrains, linear templates, surface templates and other elements by selecting from Explorer list>(right click) Properties

At the current OpenRoads version, we need to select the terrains at 3D view then click properties in order to rename. It would be better if it can be renamed just by selecting the terrain name from Explorer list>(right click) properties.

Support IFC Alignment 4.3

OpenRoads/OpenRail Designer support the import/export for IFC alignment 4.3.x. It seems that OpenRoads/OpenRail Designer can only import/export IFC alignment 4.1 https://wiki.osarch.org/index.php/IFC_-_Industry_Foundation_Classes/IFC_alignment

Need a Manage Modifications option in Annotation Groups for Points

Currently this option is only available for Linear features. This means any text annotated through Point annotation groups can't be moved or rotated, which is a problem for our Right of Way points. Sometimes we have 100+ Right of Way points that r...

Use Analyze Point Tool in Sheet/Drawing Models

We need to be able to track alignment data to check sheet annotation. Would be very helpful to have an easy way to do this in sheets. Since an alignment or terrain would still need to be selected, the sheet scale shouldn't matter. This would work ...

Allow the road slope to exceed the gutter cross slope

My state agency commonly uses gutters with a 4% cross slope. The maximum superelevation rate is 7%. The gutter slope stays at 4% in this situation. Spread does not compute in this scenario because "A depressed gutter must have a Gutter Cross Slope...

Ability to annotate models over a station range

Currently, the only way to update Annotation is to update ALL or one drawing model at a time. It would be very helpful to be able to select a station range to remove and then update in one action.

User option for linear stroking when creating terrains while processing field data in 3d files.

It would be very useful to big back the user option for stroking linear elements when creating terrains. This was available in v8i and greatly enhanced our surface models. Right now there is a configuration variable but it can't be set by users. A...
