Variable Constraints on a Skew

I've found that variable constraints are highly effective when support lines are perpendicular to the alignment. However, when a skew is introduced to these support lines, a variable constraint continues to function perpendicular to the alignment ...

Import .xtr files without losing any data

We receive the rail alignment in the form of a .xtr file. In the file itself it is possible to see that there is station, cant, construction and destruction phase, and turnout information, yet when I import it in OpenRail Designer only the alignem...

Enhancing Drainage Annotation Flexibility: Options for Maintaining Relative or Fixed Locations in Plan and Profile Views

Currently, drainage annotation will snap back to the placement location based on the placement settings within annotation groups. When I move the annotation I'd want to have the option of maintaining the location in relation to the object or maint...

Model Curves with Radius in OBM

Currently 3D elements that are curved are rendered with a series of line segments. While this might be okay for some applications, it makes the 3D model very unhelpful for plans production (i.e. you cannot dimension radii of curves). We need the c...

Clearance Report

Rail industry needs to measure clearance of many elements relative to the track: linear and point. Not all can be done using 3D clash. Some exact value are sometime required by the standards. Typically measurement of a platform edge from the CL bu...

OBM should support multi-model, 2D and 3D workflows similar to OpenRoads

Users currently need to always start with a 3D file in OBM unlike in ORD. Allow users to support the multi-model (2D and 3D) behavior similar to OpenRoads Designer. All decorations should be in the 2D file and all 3D objects in the 3D file. When s...

Allow drainage nodes to show up as a cell (catch basin, headwall, end section) in profile view.

Drainage nodes show up in 2D as the cell/feature definition it is designated like an end section. It would be useful if that same feature would show up in the profile view for drainage profiles. It currently works for the "utilities" part of "Drai...

Combining Properties Menus

It would be super helpful if I didn't have to search two different property menus for where to change specific properties. If the general properties menu and the ORD DU properties menu could be more centralized into one properties menu, this would...

Enhancement to Auto Update Field Codes on Point Features when Field Code on Linear Feature is Updated

If a user changes a linear feature code, the expectation would be to also see the feature codes on the points that make up that linear feature change accordingly (if the linear feature was dependent on these points features and the appropriate lin...

Add the Manage Modifications option to Point Annotations

There are several uses for this options, Drainage Structure plan view points, Survey points, as well as profile points.
