Add Single Point Arc that is identical to InRoads Surveys

The Sigle Point Arc command in InRoads survey would create true tangent arcs from the incoming and outgoing tangents. The ArcSingle in Open Roads does not. This frequently results in bulges in figures if the uncoded PC and PT points are not perfec...

Add Extend Arc Code to Survey (as in InRoads Survey)

This code was found to be very useful in InRoads Survey and without it, we need to retrain the crews to change their workflows.

Add extra Coloum which shows Delta Value in Geometry Report at PC, PT, No Curve PI, SC and CS

Alerts users to the existence of "kinks" in horizontal alignments. These "kinks" are where the back and ahead tangents at PCs and PTs of curves are not on the same bearing. There is a small tolerance built in to eliminate rounding errors.

Profile: Edit (move, rotate and scale) annotations in profile model

Currently in OpenRail, one cannot edit profile annotations. In profile, one can only select an annotation group, but after all the annotations are placed, they are fixed and cannot be moved, scaled or rotated. In contrast, this is possible when on...

Allow Level Overrides to Work With Profiles Created From Named Boundaries

This may very well just be Another Bug, but Level Overrides do not seem to work with Profiles cut from named boundaries. When setting up the Profile View and displaying the different surface profiles that are desired, we can use level overrides to...

Dimension display for skewed slopes

Would like to be able to have slope dimensions show a suffix of (SK) when showing skewed slopes or be able to define it to display with dual dimensions. The dual dimensions would show the actual plotted skewed slope 5.74:1(SK) and the designed slo...

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 ...

Include Civil Labels in Pen Table Element Selection Criteria

A client requires background fill in certain annotation notes, which is controlled by a pen table definition. Civil Labels are not included as a selectable Element Selection Criteria Type in the pen table dialog. Text background is insufficient fo...

Have the Terrain>Add boundary> Extract Graphics command generate a shape and not a line

The command Terrain>Add boundary with Setting "Extract Graphics" generates a line string. It should be a closed entity (shape). usually these entity will will used as a clip/mask later one, and will need to be turned into a shape so why not gen...

It would be benefitial to allow drainage designers in ORD Drainage to use graphical elements in combination with terrains to define time of concentration components.

Currently, in order to determine one of the components of the Time of Concentration (Tc), ORD DU users have to jump completely out of the 'Catchment Properties' interface to determine the length and slope of the Tc element (since once you are in t...
