Ability to update profile drawing model element annotation without removing full model annotation.

Currently, the software does not respond to removing element annotation in the profile drawing models. Instead, the entire model needs to have annotations removed, re-annotated, and then the individual elements need to be annotated.

Add ability to modify annotation group from reference without overrides

In 21 R2, the capability was added to override an annotation group. This appears the only way to be able to modify a local anno group from a referenced dgn. I would advocate to add the ability to override anno groups in the dialog when creating sh...

Fix/Bring back "Place Cell along Element" tool.

This tool was very useful for placing cells such as "raised pavement markers" at set distance intervals along very long stretches. Without this tool, plans involving tasks such as these, especially in transportation plans, take much longer.

Simplify Civil Cell tool

Civil cells contain horizontal and vertical geometry. In practice, typically the vertical design is unique for each placement instance of design features that could utilize civil cells, even though the horizontal geometry is similar or varies para...

Horizontal and vertical geometry - edit vertical elevations/profile in plan view, improve geometry snap rules/constraints.

We have used the horizontal and vertical geometry tools to create terrain models for site design of rest areas. We have found this to be very inefficient and time consuming. For example, the rest areas typically have sidewalks that vary in width, ...

Allow manual input of acre area when manually defining a catchments subareas

Currently when manually defining a catchments subareas we are only able to hard code in a percentage of the total drainage area instead of the acreage of that subarea (see attached file). This causes us to have to manually calculate the percentage...

In OpenRoads Designer Explorer, add a feature list for terrain features, similar to the new "point filter" dialog.

Currently features that make up a terrain can be viewed, added, or removed graphically. Would like to be able to see all terrain features in a table or list view, similar to point filter list. In addition, be able to add and remove or temporarily ...

Need the ability to define sequence number other than at the end of the filename

We have a standard naming convention that uses sequence numbers which are in the middle of the filenames. This has been our standard for over twenty years. Additionally, we require each sheet to be in a separate file for multiple flexibility and a...
