Ability to flip/reverse cross sections around baseline.

Ability to flip/reverse cross sections around baseline. Currently, when you reverse section, it does not hold station 0.

Parametric rebar cages

Bridge engineering would greatly benefit from having rebar cages that are parametric in nature so we do not need to start over on rebar when a design change occurs.

Graphics should be excluded from being made part of a complex alignment

If a grahic, a constuction line for example, is touching an alignment element, it will be included in the alignment when the "automatic" funtion is used in Create Complex Geomtery tool The create complex geomtry tool should only take into account ...

Needs ability to set RIM Depression Depth

Needs ability to add RIM Depression Depth with elevation (ground). Currently we can only set the Elevation (RIm) but not any depression value.

Name individual elements when using Complex by PI

You can name an element if drawn 1 at a time with tangents and arcs. But if you use Complex by PI you can't go back and name your elements to make it easier to report on your geometry.

Edit Begin and End Support for Deck and Beam Groups

Let's say there are 4 spans and the user defines a bridge with 5 supports and the deck and beam groups run from support 1 to support 5. Then the engineer learns that we don't want this long of a bridge, only 3 spans. Please add the ability to chan...

Non automatic update of cant values in cant table

This comment is coupled with another idea I had regarding selective update of annotations. Again the problem stems directly from the dynamic nature of ORD. Usually the process to create a cant for an alignment goes as follows: -Creation of speed t...

Annotation Group for Profile Intersection

This will be useful to annotate automatically intersecting features like Roads, Utilities etc.

DU RIM Elevation calculated from Ground Elevation offset

The RIM Elevation is a stagnant number once you enter an elevation it does not update in relation to any surface changes. RIM Elevation would be better suited for use if it can be defined with an offset. Another field would be needed: RIM Depressi...

Add an option to place endpoint instead of start point in the "line/arc from element" tools

It is normally very difficult to know where to place the start point to get the next element where you want it, especially when there are transition curves involved. To place the endpoint of the element and let the start point move would be much e...
