In Dynamic Sections, add width and cross slope for top of components to pop up window when hovering on components.

In SS2 InRoads Roadway Modeler we used to be able to see component slopes and widths in a pop-up window when hovering on components. This allowed us to quickly test that new point controls (or parametric constraints) were working as intended. It's...

Make Plan by 3D Element tool create Geometry with "Active Profile" to be usable

Unlike the OpenRoads v8i functionality for this tool, Plan by 3D Element does not create Geometry that has an Active Profile and therefore can't be used for the majority of functions users want by default, namely Point Controls (in ORD and OBM Dec...

Ability to assign name and/or number to horizontal geometry PC/PT/PI/CC/etc

Or maybe auto-assigning sequential number with the ability to add a prefix based on Feature Definition? Some clients require labeling the horizontal geometry points with a name/number that coincides with tables/reports. This applies to roadway geo...

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.

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...

Add BETWEEN values to display rules

When using display rules Type it would be useful to have an option of values between A-B, not only >, = , and >=. This way you can choose between multiple versions of a component. Example absolute horizontal 0-1 Curb type F, 1-2 type A, 2-3 ...

Multi-threaded Drawing creation and annotation

Seeing that Named Boundaries for Quantities and IFC export now include multi-threading for simultaneous processing, an urgently needed implementation of this needs to be Drawing production - specifically the creation of drawings and annotation. Th...

Functionality Needed for Plotting Crossing Elements on long Profiles

User need functionality added back into OpenRoads that allows for crossing drainage, utilities, structures and roadways to be displayed on profiles. User know that 3D cuts are the recommended workflow for this, but they do not work when you have a...
