Symbol to easily display which profile is active

When multiple profiles are drawn in one alignment or civil feature, the user has to hunt for which one is set active. If they are close to each other and/or the same feature definition this is quite tedious! It would be helpful if there was a way ...

Profile by best fit - Curve radius

Request to introduce the ability to create a profile by best fit by defining the radius of the arc rather than its length?

Horizontal and vertical geometry - edit vertical elevations/profile in plan view, improve geometry snap rules/constraints.

We have used the horizontal and vertical geometry tools to create terrain models for site design of rest areas. We have found this to be very inefficient and time consuming. For example, the rest areas typically have sidewalks that vary in width, ...

Geometry Builder Interior Angles

We often get plats that have interior angles and distance for the parcels, tracts, etc. It would be nice if this option was in geometry builder.

Graphically edit the profile by variable slope

It would be good to have the option to drag the start and end stations of the profile by variable slope from element in the profile window. Similarly as the partial offset tool in plan. At the moment the user needs to update values in the properti...

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...

Geometry Points ruled by Name to allow users to move Points by importing ASCII

Ruling point import by name would add some powerful automation to the software. If a user could import a Point via ASCII and have any existing Points with the same name update (while maintaining the same object) this would allow things like posts ...

Allow entering a degree of curve (d 00^00'00") as the Radius of the Alignment Table Editor.

When creating curves, an ORD user is allowed to enter a degree of curve (d 00^00'00") as the Radius. Put the same functionality in the Alignment Table Editor.

Option to set station limits while creating Curvature Diagram.

I want option to set a station limits while creating Curvature Diagram so that we can focus on a very specific area instead of the whole geometry.
