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.

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...

display geometry name in multiple profile view

Though we can change the symbology for the different projected profile in the Multiple Profile tool, it will be much easier for users to be able to see the geometry name as they move along the profile. This prevents confusion and provides clarity.

Add a tool (or an option to the existing place point tool) to compute the traverse using a deflection angle instead of an absolute angle.

The existing Locate Point tool using the Traverse and Radial methods functionally does something similar, but must have 180 degrees added manually to the deflection angles to get the absolute angle.

Ability to Place Geometry Points that use Parametric Cells

I would like Geometry Points to support using parametric cells.

Geometry Overlapping Linear elements.

Whenever you have a Geometry and used shared line (e.g. Lots), There should be a tool to remove duplicate/overlapping lines. Its problematic if we use a special linestyle with gaps and when the two line on top of each other it will look like a sol...

Text favorite to honor math expressions

What I envision, would be the ability to define Math within a Text Favorite. So, let us say that "[[" would define the start of math in a text favorite. A text favorite could be created in that the value displayed, is math from element properties....

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...

XML from Design Input Report for corridors should provide list of corridor attachments (and file and model the element is in)

Corridor design input report provides much of what we need to reconstruct the corridor, but not a list of linework listed in the corridor attachments.

Export Drainage Model to 2D Linework

It would be nice to be able to export a drainage network into 2D linework that can be edited for plan sheets. Currently, we don't use our modeled files directly in our plan sheets as we cannot adjust the conduit line styles and it takes longer to ...
