Vertically Aligned Collision Free Cross Section Frame Annotation when Using Horizontal Text

Using OpenRail 2024 Vertical Frame Text significantly increases the height of Cross Sections, THUS causing more sheets. Would like the capability to have Horizontal Text in a frame, one row for Offset, one for Elevation. While this can be done, wh...

Utility Overhead Conduits/Nodes

Current Limitations Currently, creating overhead conductors between two "Overhead Nodes" (e.g., utility poles) results in a straight-line conduit. In reality, these lines always exhibit a natural sag due to gravity and tension forces. To model sag...

Configuration variable to control default path for .tiw files

When working in a fieldbook in survey, we want to set the default file path to a specific location for .tiw files. As it stands, ORD remembers the last location from which a .tiw was imported, but we want to set a file path for all users.

Generate 2D Closed Shape from Corridor Component or Other Mesh

It would be extremely useful to have the option to generate a 2D shape of the top planar surface of a 3D component that updates as the corridor changes. This would be similar to how corridor points can already generate a 2D line if specified in th...

Constraint Labels need to come from a list stored in the ITL

To avoid mistakes from typing in a wrong Label Name, it would be powerful to have the possibility to choose an existing Label Name from a dropdown-list in the dialog box when building Point Constraints in a civil template. The dropdown-list must s...

Allow Annotation Groups to annotate with Label Definitions

Now that the Civil Labeler definitions are stored within a dgnlib, i think it would be really useful to combine some functionality. Annotation Groups allow for annotating with text, cells, or lines. Adding with Label Definition would allow an anno...

Live Element Annotation in Drawing Models via Annotation Groups

There can be a lot of instances on a project where a detail in a section is not practical to model 3D, and the user feels compelled draw the element live in the drawing model. It would be great to capture live elements with annotation groups, as t...

Cross Section Named Boundary Scan Criteria

Add option for scan criteria in models for upper lower limits like Geopak had. It could include wildcards to list levels/features to be included for the upper lower limits. We would rather not manually change level display, feature settings or cre...
