Profile by best fit - Curve radius

Request to introduce the ability to create a profile by best fit by defining the radius of the arc rather than its length?

elevation analysis in profile view

Elevation analysis needs improved within the profile window. Specifically elevation differences. Either at a single station or point, or minimum distances, etc. In the attached screen shot, I would like to know where my minimum distance occurs bet...

Arc Direction Labels Variable

A configuration variable for the arc hand direction label to change the "CCW" or "CW" definition to a new value like "LT" or "RT"? We would prefer to have this dynamic for the text favorite. If a user was to label with the civil labeler they would...

horizontal reports for multiple alignments

Currently when only one rail alignment can be selected to output a horizontal report. Would be great if the ability to select multiple alignments and output a horizontal report at the same time. Reason: Currently have projects which contain multip...

Import and Export ITL templates from and to Microstation

In InRoads there was the ability to import templates from Microstation. This enabled complex shapes that were drawn in CAD to be used in templates.

Add Application Version number in Pref Folder

Please add the correct version number to applications user preference folder. Currently when you browse to Openroads user preference folder you get folders called 10.0.0 and 10.0.0_1. These folders need to contain the version number of Openroads s...

Civil Expression value option for Increasing

Currently there are values for StationStart and StationEnd, which is dependent on the direction of the line being drawn. I am proposing an additional option to report the beginning and ending of stationing with respect to the alignment (smallest t...

Ability to add "lock points" in the geometries with higher priority than the usual rules

An option to add "geometry lock points" in the geometries with higher priority than the usual rules would be really useful to make the geometry behave as you wish. As an example it could be the center point of a radius so that the radius keeps it ...

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...
