Need to be able to read the GEOPAK Drainage binary file and export to a spreadsheet – without having GEOPAK installed or running

Geopak is no longer supported by Bentley. At some point, Geopak will not be installed on our machines, but we may need to get the calculations that reside in the GDF file. We need a method that will allow us to extract the information we need from...

IFC export: 3D line styles and Mesh export

3D line styles are a powerfull tool, but if the ifc can't export it, they don`t mean much in a BIM world. Possibility to export them (barriers, Posts, Signs, ...) is a major breakthrough for OpenRoads/OpenSite BIM capabilities. The same goes for m...

Snapping to arc/spiral end in profile

I would highly recommend to let user to snap to arc or spiral end in profile design. As you can see in the attached video I can't find intersection between profile alignment and vertical line that indicates arc/spiral end. To find intersection b...

Rename terrains, linear templates, surface templates and other elements by selecting from Explorer list>(right click) Properties

At the current OpenRoads version, we need to select the terrains at 3D view then click properties in order to rename. It would be better if it can be renamed just by selecting the terrain name from Explorer list>(right click) properties.

Use Analyze Point Tool in Sheet/Drawing Models

We need to be able to track alignment data to check sheet annotation. Would be very helpful to have an easy way to do this in sheets. Since an alignment or terrain would still need to be selected, the sheet scale shouldn't matter. This would work ...

Ability to annotate models over a station range

Currently, the only way to update Annotation is to update ALL or one drawing model at a time. It would be very helpful to be able to select a station range to remove and then update in one action.

Ability to append, join, or combine individual alignments and have it hold the sub alignment stationing, which would create station equations

In Geopak, we had the ability to take individual alignments and create an overall alignment from a subset of alignments and it would hold the individual stationing for each alignment, creating station equations. There is no way to do this in ORD u...

Need a Manage Modifications option in Annotation Groups for Points

Currently this option is only available for Linear features. This means any text annotated through Point annotation groups can't be moved or rotated, which is a problem for our Right of Way points. Sometimes we have 100+ Right of Way points that r...

Add a tool (or an option to the existing place point tool) to compute the traverse using a deflection angle instead of an absolute angle.

The existing Locate Point tool using the Traverse and Radial methods functionally does something similar, but must have 180 degrees added manually to the deflection angles to get the absolute angle.

Drainage module conduits and nodes data to be added to Cross section Frame

Road Cross section are able to display template, Design and existing terrain surface within the frame. But if theres drainage infrastructure there is no way of displaying that data within the frame it has to be done as a point annotation.
