Add "Make Active Profile" checkbox to all element profiles tools

Every command in the vertical group in the geometry tab should have a checkbox inside to automatically make it the active one. This way the user won't have to open the profile in a view and select it. Pretty simple and would save a lot of work..

Compound Curve with Spiral Segments Tool

A geometry tool is needed to easily create a Compound Horizontal Curve with Spiral segments. Having the ability to quickly compute a Spiral-Curve-Spiral-Curve-Spiral between two tangents would be greatly beneficial to the track design work we do. ...

Enhancement::Additional Tool for Design of Cross over connection between Tangent & Canted Tracks

I suggest improvements to Bentley OpenRail Designer for handling Cross over connections in the following scenarios: Cross over Between Adjacent Tangent Tracks: Enable a simple geometric connection between two parallel tracks without the use of Geo...

Allow users to see horizontal and vertical alignments while in view only mode.

Wise users open files in read-only mode when they don’t intend to change the file. ORD should promote good file practice to allow us to view geometry when we are in view only mode.

Disable Point Controls Rather than Delete When Control Can't Be Found

Currently when the control - profile, alignment, feature - can't be found due to a deletion or reference detachment, the corresponding point control(s) is removed from the corridor. Considering that these events may occur inadvertently and not dis...

Text Favorite Use Dimension Style Setting

When a Text Favorite is set to "Active Settings" it looks at the file setting and is not reading active dimension style setting from the element template or the tool settings. According to MicroStation the Active Setting is set by the dimension st...

Draw railway scheme in the annotation

We need that when writing down the singular points of a railway deviation (P0, P1, P2 and P3), they are joined by straight lines P1 with P2 and P0 with P3. See attached image. In fact, the V8i version did represent the detour scheme. Thank you!

Auto-rotate Annotation and Labels

Suggestion to allow annotation and labels to align with plan named boundaries and sheet file plan views. For example, consider a plan named boundaries shape around a horizontal curve. If you have a separate standalone annotation file, often times,...

Clip 2d geometry same as 3D corridorclip

When a corridor clip is applied, the 2D geometry is not affected by that corridor clip, only the 3d mesh is clipped. I would like an option to choose whether you'd also like to clip the 2D geometry.

Add an Interval button to the Dynamic Cross Sections

Please add an interval setting to dynamic cross sections . This will allow users to control the interval in which to view cross sections. By default the interval matches the corridor density.
