In eigenvalue analysis of repetitive structures—where identical sub-systems exist independently within a single model—the same frequencies and eigenmodes are often assigned repeatedly to each sub-system. This leads to an issue with the CQC (Comple...

While modeling complex projects there has been many instances where I would like templates to not connect features between drops. My current workflow is to create a new corridor at these locations. One example is when a new roadway base course sec...

For modeling corners that is harder to do with templates, similar to Civil 3d, the ability to quickly manipulate elevation points and slopes on a 3d wireframe design would make designing curb ramps so much easier.

Currently, when one uses the create regression line from rails tool, the points that the program creates are 2D, in other words they contain only X and Y, not Z. It would be nice to create points along with the regression line that contains also i...

There used to be a tool in InRoads (I think it was part of the Generate Longitudinal Feature) where you could project the slope between 2 elements onto a third element. The is no such tool in ORD. The only way I can figure to do it now is to creat...

Often in time Files get corrupted and broken there is no tools to repair files, files should be repairable because projects last for many years often.

We need to annotate point name, offset and elevations in cross sections for rail Earlier it was being done in power rail using preferences. The drawing model scale annotation is 1:30. I tried adding point annotation using text favorite from civil ...

Enhance the flow arrows so they are centered on each chord, just as it is for the single line.

Service load cases are optional for legal and permit vehicle ratings for prestressed girder structures, but are required for the design vehicle. Currently, two analysis runs must be done to get ratings for design, legal and permit vehicles; one ru...

Make Cross Section to Surface tool available on newer versions of OpenRoads Designer. This tool was available on InRoads.
