Need a way to analyze plan, profile, and xs simultaneously with sta/off information

there is no good tool that we have found that allows you to analyze plan, profile, xs simultaneously with sta/off & elev information.

Cross Section View and elevation difference measurement tools

A way to better measure slope in cross section view, and elevation difference, that isn’t clunky.

Ability in Surface Creation to Move Backward

Ability in surface creation to move backward. For instance, proposed top mesh for retaining walls will never be correct, because the coping and barrier wall being outside of the wall requires the surface to move in the opposite direction. This can...

Create 3D cut volumes with a variable cut offset

So far Openrail designer contains a tool called create 3D cut for profiles. It is very useful when one wants to show cuts from a 3D section across the track. However one can choose only a specific distance from track. There are cases (for example ...

Add option for suffix (pos and neg) to Slope Format

In format options for slope annotation we can define prefix for positive and negative values. please add the option to add a suffix. This would allow to annotate for example XS Slopes like so: <2.0% this way or 2.0%> the other way
