Turnout in exportable file

It would be very useful to have a way of bringing geometry including turnouts between models i.e. as in the .alg files. Rather than having to use a dgn. With large alignment files, they are a lot more manageable/faster when split into smaller sect...

Add ability for Geometry build to automate station equations when joining complex geometry

In the Geometry Builder Edit, I can pick multiple geometry complex alignments and add them to create a 'combined' geometry. When I pick the multiple geometry elements and combine them, it starts with the alignment stationing of the first selected ...

GenerativeComponents - Alignment Node

Special Node/Option for Full recognition/utilisation of Alignment in GenerativeComponents. Since GC made it's entry into Civil products, it is vital that it gets tools (Node/-s) vital for closer cooperation with Civil Packages who make us of Align...

Offset Alignment - Controlled by Station, Offset and Cross Slope.

An OFFSET ALIGNMENT / GEOMETRY CHAIN command would be a gamer changer for ORD. Most of our geometry including "edge of pavement", "curb" and "ditches" are controlled by station offset cross slope from a control line. Currently to create offset geo...

Graphics should be excluded from being made part of a complex alignment

If a grahic, a constuction line for example, is touching an alignment element, it will be included in the alignment when the "automatic" funtion is used in Create Complex Geomtery tool The create complex geomtry tool should only take into account ...

Combination of Alignment .dgn

A function that allows you to copy an alignment from a reference .dgn would be extremely helpful. It would great if it could be copied across intelligently, with associated featured (vertical profiles, cant etc). Currently copies a 3D graphic at b...

Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment

Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...

curved corners in bridge geometry

OBM should allow o define sharp corners for decks and barriers (in addition to rounded). Currently every turn is interpolated using spline type of line, without control from user end (regardless of the manipulation for the chord and distance betwe...

Add a “Chord" Toggle to all the Horizontal Curve Tools

To have to go to the Back Stage and select Settings ==> File ==> Design File Settings ==> Civil Formatting ==> Degree of Curve Method to change from an Arc Defined Curve to Chord Defined Curve is not a good workflow. In our State we ca...
