Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

As part of the profile superelevation annotation, the annotation currently cannot annotate the location where the superelevation is 0%. This would be helpful to show in plans and for designers to easily see the station this point is at.

Add a Geometry Connector tool for Vertical Geometry

Cuurently OpenRail implements a tool called Geometry Connector (similar to Multiple Horizontal element Regression Analysis in Power Rail Track). However similar geometry tool is not available for vertical geometry calculations. It would be possibl...

Make it possible to apply various symbology on one alignment

Many times an alignment is partly existing and partly new or changed. In the drawings this should be shown with different symbology and annotation, something that is not easy in ORD. A tool that can do this would be very useful!

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.

Change Display based on Either Properties, Display Styles, or Level Overrides

When Switching between state of a Structure Existing and Proposed, Removed, Etc. we need a way to keep the same Feature we should be able to Either Map to a property to choose the Level to Display or be able to overwrite the Level Via Display Style.

Enhancement to Introduce the Remapping Capability on Terrain Model’s Source Path

There is currently not a way to remap the terrain model’s source path in ORD. This capability is needed to be able to push survey data updates via rewriting a .tin file to then update from source (sourcing back to the rewritten .tin file with surv...

Migration Utilities .exe's to be updated

Currently, the Migration Utilities suite of .exe files was created for 2020 R3 release of OpenRail Designer (ORD). In earlier versions of ORD, the linear and profile symbology were linked closely together, in later version of ORD (>2022) the sy...
