    Insert a table of geometry information directly from Horizontal Geometry Report

    It would be great to be able to create a custom report format in the Horizontal Geometry Report and then be able to insert that into a DGN directly from there.

    Option to open a dgn with all civil rules deactivated

    We occasionally run into a problem with files where a civil rule being processed cause the file to crash on open. There are some painful workarounds to get into the files such as force breaking references and such, however a better way would be to...

    Profile annotation in the point shows slope of the middle of the left and right line

    Please see attached file. User would like to be able to show slope of the middle of the profile lines, in annotation that is assigned to a point. Annotation shown on the printscreen.

    Migration Utilities .exe's to be updated

    Currently, the Migration Utilities suite of .exe files was created for 2020 R3 release of OpenRail Designer (ORD). In earlier versions of ORD, the linear and profile symbology were linked closely together, in later version of ORD (>2022) the sy...

    Add a Geometry Connector tool for Vertical Geometry

    Cuurently OpenRail implements a tool called Geometry Connector (similar to Multiple Horizontal element Regression Analysis in Power Rail Track). However similar geometry tool is not available for vertical geometry calculations. It would be possibl...

    Add The Ability To Insert A Vertical Bend Or Curve Into A Drainage Link/PIPE.

    It would be very helpful and much more efficient if there was an option to insert a vertical bend or curve into a drainage link/pipe from the profile run profile view. Basically, adding the exact same tool that is available in plan/horizontal call...

    Dynamic cross section simultaneous tracking

    Please allow us to move our cursor in a dynamic cross section and allow us to see a pointer move side to side in the 2D model at the same time.

    End Area Earthwork Corrections for Curvature

    End Area Volumes are still a contractual requirement on projects. We need a tool to correct the earthwork calculations around curves like the GEOPAK “Centroid Adjustment” tool that did that correction and provided a summary of the centroid locatio...

    Need 'Remove Loops' functionality to remove overlapping components/features (or 'bowties') in interior corners

    Loops from end conditions are created. InRoads had a remove loops check box to prevent this, and we would like a similar feature added into ORD.

    Superelevation Frame Annotation can annotate the 0% cross slope location

    As part of the profile superelevation annotation, the annotation currently cannot annotate the location where the superelevation is 0%. This would be helpful to show in plans and for designers to easily see the station this point is at.
