Overlap detection in Corridor Objects

I noticed that template ranges can overlap and there is no obvious indication that this is occurring. Ideally over lapping station ranges should highlight in red to draw attention to it.

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...

There needs to be a better way to understand the relationships between elements and reference files that are created by snap rules and constraints.

This improvement would use graphic symbols (construction elements) to represent constraint relationships in plan view. For horizontal elements that are snapped, there are the snap glyphs that show that there is a relationship, but there is not a w...

One button downgrade and export

While we are in a transition phase between the old v8i to the ORD dgn files, we sometimes receive files in the wrong dgn format. The steps to downgrade to a v8i backwards compatible file involves too many steps and introduces units and coordinate ...

Make the Geometry Table editor to match drawing/project standard curve definitions

Currently the lengths given by the Table editor gives Chord defined curves as Arc defined lengths. So the length and the stationing are off.

Description Fields for Corridor Inputs

For the modeling and model review process, it would be helpful to have Description fields for common corridor inputs, such as Parametric Constraints, Point Controls, etc. that can be easily discovered using the Corridor Objects tool.

Allow for LP/HP for terrains to have both Point and Text shown at the same time

When zooming out, the points are shown. When zooming in, the points are hidden and the text is shown. I'd like for the point to always be shown and have the text be dynamic.

Geometry Replacer needs to include Vertical geometry

The horizontal Geometry Replacer tool is a step in the right direction, but it needs to include support for replacing profiles as well or have a companion tool of some kind.

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.

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 ...
