Line and Curve Tables for both Alignments and Parcels

Need tools for creating Line and Curve tables with smarts. Geopak D&C had a tool for creating line and curve tables. Why doesn't OpenRoads have tools for this? Needs to be smart so that as changes are made to the geometry the data in the table...

Civil Label and Place Label Preview

I think it would be helpful to have a preview of what the label will look like before placing it. Similar to the geopak labeler preview window. And also to be able to select full station, partial station and number of decimal places for stations, ...

Civil Labeler - Defined Rotation Angle

We place grade elevation labels on our plans typically at a 30 degree angle from the view. Currently, the civil labeler only allows for rotation to be set to "View Horizontal" or "View Vertical" regarding placement as it relates to the active view...

Allow Plan Annotation>Arc>“Arc Length” property to annotate length for both Arc and Chord Definition curves so that only one text favorite is necessary to annotate curve length if both types of definitions exist in the same alignment.

With this issue we need to be able to create a single Alignment Feature Definition that will be able to annotate both Arc and Chord defined Curves in the same alignment. That single Alignment Feature Definition will have a Length Label “L” and it ...

Allow Vertical Geometry Stationing (Profile Annotations) to Reflect Correct Horizontal Chord Definition Stationing

This would be useful for designers working on a project in which chord definition is the client's standard. Currently OpenRail does not correctly annotate the stationing in our profile sheets. The stationing displayed by OpenRail is correct in arc...
