Toggle Drainage Calculations On or Off

Applicable to OpenRoads Drainage, CivilStorm, and StormCAD Bentley drainage software tries to do too much / it tries to do ALL the calculations, even if you don’t want to. There have been times I have had separate drainage models: one for inlet sp...

Ability to plot CPT data in OpenRoads from OpenGround

Our partner Dataforensics has a project with an OpenGround user, HDR where they need to plot borehole data and CPT data in OpenRoads. Seems like they were able to do this in Civil3D but are now using ORD and want to do the same as the attached

Display A parameter (not Length) after using "Create Civil Rule Feature" option.

When I create an alignment with curves using A parameter and when I select this alignment "A parameter" will be properly displayed. Then when I "Remove Rule" and use "Create Civil Rule Feature" tool, A parameter will be replaced with "Length".

Create multiple long sections/profiles in the same model space

When creating profiles/long sections for track vertical geometry, ORD creates an individual sheet view and model view for each sheet. This creates a large amount of work when trying to bulk annotate or export long sections for drafting. It would b...

Additional Shoulder Rollover Slope Rows (3D Modeling - Templates)

I would like to make a suggestion on an improvement to template design for 3D Modeling in ORD. The Rollover values tool in superelevation template design is incredibly helpful, as it saves time by calculating the proper shoulder super rates accord...

Geometry - Copy Chain Parallel Command

There was a command in Geopak called Copy Chai n Parallel that was very useful in creating offsets of survey chains, and creating new points at constant delta elevations. We are looking for the same function to be added in OpenRoads Designer.

Fix Annotation with Projected Vertical Profiles

When a vertical profile is projected to a different alignment, annotations that are located as "In Vertical Components" do not display. For example, we have a profile annotation.point slope text favorite that displays perfectly when annotated with...

Allow Level Overrides to Work With Profiles Created From Named Boundaries

This may very well just be Another Bug, but Level Overrides do not seem to work with Profiles cut from named boundaries. When setting up the Profile View and displaying the different surface profiles that are desired, we can use level overrides to...
