Geometry Replacer needs to include Vertical geometry

The horizontal Geometry Replacer tool is a step in the right direction, but it needs to include support for replacing profiles as well or have a companion tool of some kind.

Include the ability to use the slope of a terrain when placing a Geometry Point

This would be good for 3D modelling of any item that needs to slope the same as the design surface such as guard fence terminals. This is available within the Drainage and Utilities, but when using this it loads a lot of other information into the...

Add a Reference File Selection Capability in the Profile Model Create 3D Cut Tool

In the Create 3D Cut tool, it would be nice to be able to select which reference file(s) the user would like to use when creating 3D cuts in the profile model. This capability would keep ORD from 3D cutting all attached reference files.

Support spaces for bearing input in geometry tools

The geometry tools should allow for spaces between degrees minutes and seconds (N78 34 22E). This format is supported in the Geometry Builder but not the other geometry tools and the inconsistence is frustrating. Currently you have to enter either...

Introduce the concept of seperate model containers to control data much better

In MX we had the concept of models that allowed users to very quickly and efficiently control feature display, select specific features and perform extensive automation of almost all functions. Without this functionality in ORD, users a either stu...

rotate cells placed by field book

We need to be able to manually rotate survey cells in a 3D file. Yes, I understand there are macros to automate this. But simply put, we should be able to use the microstation rotate command and have the cell respond.

Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...

Enhancement to Create a New Lost Civil Rule Icon

In 10.11 R1 (10.11.00.115), the profile projection icon under the OpenRoads Model tab changes when the projection’s source reference file is detached. Once you detach the reference the profile projection loses its civil rule, thus the icon changes...

Create Drawing Model Only from Plan and Profile Named Boundary

User request the ability to only create the drawing model and not the sheet model when running the Create Profile Drawing tool. SImilar to how the Cross Section one works. You have a toggle on the Create Cross Section dialog.
