Make it possible to apply various symbology on one alignment

Many times an alignment is partly existing and partly new or changed. In the drawings this should be shown with different symbology and annotation, something that is not easy in ORD. A tool that can do this would be very useful!

Access OBM directly instead of opening OBD first

It would really be helpful for users with OBD to not have to open OBD prior to opening OBM. That is a big pain point that I get a lot of complaints about. Also it is very confusing for users at first, they don't understand why they can't just clic...

Export 3D Elements to IFC without losing its metadata

The current Export to IFC capability in ORD is limited only to retaining some of the item types, but the other metadata are lost upon exporting. The workaround we gave to the user is to use the Bentley Infrastructure Cloud as the exporting of the ...

Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes

Ability to export and import all corridor objects such as point controls to enable rebuilding of corridors

I know parametric constraints can be exported but if a corridor becomes corrupt then being able to rebuild it from scratch easily would be useful. Similar to an input file in MX

A way to manage multiple project ITL files

I'm not sure how best to implement it, but it's not uncommon to have multiple people working on a project with multiple corridor files. Having just one itl for the project would cause a lot of conflict and possible erros so multiple itl files are ...

Annotation of High and Low Points for Geometry and other Linears

For now, the annotation of High and Low Points is very limited:# only one Low Point is detected - multiple low points are ignored# its is a linear3D annotation, and snaps on the annotations are not ruled (this intent is to be able to place drainag...

Deed Writer – Allow Single Line to Define Right of Way Boundary

In the Deed Writer tool (accessed via Geometry > Reports > Deed Writer), after selecting the reference alignment, the next step prompts the user to identify the Right of Way boundary. Currently, the tool only accepts closed shapes for this b...
