Extend 2D profile terrain limits beyond element

The ability to extend a profile's terrain cut using the 2D quick profile tool would be helpful for all profile types - but specifically drainage. I'd like to be able to set a buffer distance that extends existing and proposed surface cuts beyond t...

Multiple linked speed schemes to each cant table

I would like to have the possibility to link multiple speed schemes/train categories to each cant table in a way that makes it possible to create a report that includes cant, cant deficiency, sudden changes etc, for all speed schemes in one place ...

expanded temporary dimensioning in dynamic cross section

I would like to be able to use a temporary horizontal dimension on any graphic that shows in my dynamic cross sections. Currently, we are only able to dimension the corridor we selected for xsecs. In my case, I have many adjacent corridors and sit...

Analyze point

It would be extremely useful to have Analyze Point on every tab by default. That tool gets utilized a lot to evaluate all kinds of civil geometry.

Profile projection tools for crossfall relative to Target element

In legacy software, we had the option to either project crossfall from one element to another relative/normal to the reference element or relative/normal to the target element. We do not seem to have this functionality in ORD currently (although t...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

Dynamic Tables

For the geometry review; setting out or other OpenRoads/OpenRail tables, if we can place the table/report into DGN design model, once the geometry or model is updated, the values of the table placed in the design model is also updated dynamic. sim...

Have both turnouts as ''free'' when calculating a crossover

When calculating a crossover geometry (2 turnouts+geometry in between) it could be beneficial if both turnouts (beginning and end) could be set as free. This would be beneficial in cases when two tracks are not totall parallel and the only option ...

Civil Labeler - Add Dimension Line when annotation between points

When using Civil Labeler to annotate between 2 points, like plan linear>between geometry, it would be great to be able to place a dimension line controlled by usual dimension style and being able to place the annotation at the middle of the dim...
