Create a tool to clip alignments.

Create a tool to clip an alignment at any location along the alignment that does not affect or change the stationing or the station equations even if you are clipping the beginning of the alignment.

Enhance Design Standards to flag gaps in Geometry & apply to Feature Definitions

Additional functionality is needed for Design Standards to be fully functional for project delivery. Some additional thins include: Allow Design Standards to be optionally assigned to Alignment Feature Definitions so Alignments are created with th...

Annotate part of element name on cross sections and profiles

I want to be able to annotate the names (and item type properties) of utilities on cross sections and profiles. For example, if there are 10 water pipes that have been surveyed and imported as 3D linear elements they will have unique feature names...

Modify the LLS part when placing a turnout.

Currently one could add an LLS part on a turnout. Unfortunately this is a standard value. Sometimes, when creating a horizontal geometry, it is necessary to ''shorten'' the LLS part (aka to place a fewer amount of long sleepers that a standard LLS...

Add ability to set default Engineering Libraries for all users

As it stands, I can make a new Engineering Library on a network drive to share with other users, but if I wanted to make that library the "default", I can't without having to make the change for each individual user.

Ability to automatically generate 3d linear features/Linestrings from OBM elements

Generation of 2d decorations and solids are insufficient for full coordination with road geometry teams and they regularly need to provide 3d linestring geometry as part of the roadway design for bridge barriers, wingwall edges for earthworks, etc...

Checkbox to turn on-/off alignments

It would be useful to be able to turn on-/off single alignments. Perhaps with a checkbox in the "OpenRail Model" section in the explorer, just like the ones in the "Feature definition" section in OpenRail Standards. This could probably be handy wi...

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.

Viewing preview annotation in profile frame annotation setup

Currently, in the setting up of profile drawing annotation group, we have no visibility of what is being set up for the frame annotation. It does not provide a preview of the values and output that will be presented and that is challenging as we w...

Static grid in profile view

I would like to have possibility to turn on static grid in geometry profile view. Something like the ability to set the main grid and minor grid intervals in the geometry profile view in the same way like it is done in drawings and sheets and make...
