Ability to extend profile runs

I would like the ability to control the limits of the profile run in profile sheets which would also allow me to control the stationing without having to create a separate alignment and project the drainage run into the separate alignment.

Set Minimum and Maximum Cover Constraints to the Conduit Catalog, not the Prototype

Pipe standards vary their minimum and maximum pipe cover values based on the size of the pipes. There needs to be an ability to set this per conduit size so that when running a design you can consider these different cover depths. As of now, you w...

Open API to programmatically create Feature Definitions and Feature Symbologies.

It would be extremely helpful, if we were able to programmatically create Feature Definitions and Feature Symbologies so that automation of the creation of new 'Custom Drainage Features' every time a drainage structure had a different bottom box (...

Parametric capability for the placement of Node and Conduit feature definitions

This would dramatically reduce the requirement for a vast number of library cells and feature definitions to be created

Catchment Sub Areas need to be more accessible

A catchment's subareas is ONLY accessible by opening the subareas collection. This limits the ability to streamline various workflows. At minimum sub areas need to be accessible from the following: Flex Tables - The current flex tables will only...

Annotate invert and crown elevations of conduit anywhere along its length instead of just the start and end

We would like to be able to set up annotation groups to annotate the invert and/or crown elevations of a conduit along its length using set station intervals. Currently, there are only start/end invert/crown elevation text favorite fields.

Eliminate the Utility Property Panel

We are now 10 years into OpenRoads. Why are we still faced with two property panels. One for MicroStation and one for Utility/drainage. The two property panels overlap in what is displayed. ELIMINATE the Utility Properties Panel so we can end the ...

Add The Ability To Insert A Vertical Bend Or Curve Into A Drainage Link/PIPE.

It would be very helpful and much more efficient if there was an option to insert a vertical bend or curve into a drainage link/pipe from the profile run profile view. Basically, adding the exact same tool that is available in plan/horizontal call...

Drainage and Utilities to support non-drainage pressure pipes

Pressure pipes are essential components of many engineering systems, such as water supply, oil and gas transportation, and power generation. To design and manage these systems, engineers need features that can model the geometry and properties of ...

Enhancement to Create Project Node to Element Tool

There is currently not a way to project a node from the Drainage and Utility Model to an element (horizontal alignment’s profile model). Profile runs can be created and then projected onto the profile model by conduit linkage. With this enhancemen...
