Allow new Line of Sight analysis to be included in Civil Cells

The new Line of Sight tool is a great addition to the visibility toolset, however, automated repetitive checks are still not possible. As the "standard" Line of Sight checks are usually for things like approach to stop lines and fixed objects, int...

Fix DIST Command in Survey to InRoads Survey Operation

The DIST Command in Open Roads is almost identical to the InRoads version with one problematic exception. Open Roads uses the last two actual shots to determine the direction to turn the 90-degree angle to generate its points. InRoads would allow ...

Vertical curve from element with outgoing slope

When creating vertical curves "from element" it would be really useful to be able to set the outgoing slope (I have not been successful using "civil accudraw" for this purpose...).

Expand Stationing Favorites to allow truncating trailing zeros.

When using any of the labeling and annotation tools, some situations end up with trailing zeros. When users manually labeled such occurrences, they would omit any trailing zeros. Other distance values allow this type of operation, but stationing d...

Profile along sight visibility lines

When creating sight visibility a 3D model is created with sight lines. Currently these sight lines are not able to be individually selected to provide a profile along the line. This option was available in MX SS4 and useful for checking some obstr...

Ability to choose named boundary stations from another geometry

Would like to have a checkbox when creating corridors and named boundaries (particular to cross sections) to allow users to choose another geometry to pick start and stop stations. Example, I built an alignment alongside two other adjacent alignme...

Application to read DGN schema and open the relative ORD version
