Ability to update profile drawing model element annotation without removing full model annotation.
Currently, the software does not respond to removing element annotation in the profile drawing models. Instead, the entire model needs to have annotations removed, re-annotated, and then the individual elements need to be annotated.
Allow user to define width of superelevation section graphic.
Currently, the graphic representing the superelevation section is hard coded to use the radius of the smallest curve in the alignment. If the radius of the smallest curve is 50 meters or more, the section width is hard-coded to 50 meters.
If t...
Add ability to modify annotation group from reference without overrides
In 21 R2, the capability was added to override an annotation group. This appears the only way to be able to modify a local anno group from a referenced dgn. I would advocate to add the ability to override anno groups in the dialog when creating sh...
Automatically calculate values when inputting into property fields
When inputting numbers into property fields, ORD can automatically calculate them for you. Example: Survey field team shoots the top of casting elevation of a manhole at 500ft, then shoots again for a bottom invert of the manhole but only leaves a...
This tool was very useful for placing cells such as "raised pavement markers" at set distance intervals along very long stretches. Without this tool, plans involving tasks such as these, especially in transportation plans, take much longer.
Civil cells contain horizontal and vertical geometry. In practice, typically the vertical design is unique for each placement instance of design features that could utilize civil cells, even though the horizontal geometry is similar or varies para...
Horizontal and vertical geometry - edit vertical elevations/profile in plan view, improve geometry snap rules/constraints.
We have used the horizontal and vertical geometry tools to create terrain models for site design of rest areas. We have found this to be very inefficient and time consuming. For example, the rest areas typically have sidewalks that vary in width, ...
