Rectangle feature

Openroads Horizontal Geometry has lines, arcs, and circle features. Add a rectangular civil geometry element. This would be used for site grading (building pad), instead of drawing 4 individual civil geometry lines and complexing together, a recta...

Set Feature Definition - Use Active Feature Definition

Unlike many of the civil tools, the Set Feature Definition tool does not have an option to use active feature definition. This tool is commonly used with Match Feature Definition, which sets the active feature from selected element. Add option for...

Quadrant Option for Bearing input in Geometry/Lines

Geometry/Lines requires you to enter the bearing value as S45d30'30"E which is way too many key strokes and unproductive. Geometry Builder allows us to enter the same bearing using the quadrant method (245.3030) which is much faster/easier and ali...
