    Allow Parametric Constraints to Override Rollover Slope

    As an OpenRoads Designer user, I want parametric constraints to be allowed to override Rollover slopes to make it easier to apply constraints to the corridor and template models.

    Clip 2d geometry same as 3D corridorclip

    When a corridor clip is applied, the 2D geometry is not affected by that corridor clip, only the 3d mesh is clipped. I would like an option to choose whether you'd also like to clip the 2D geometry.

    Add a tool (or an option to the existing place point tool) to compute the traverse using a deflection angle instead of an absolute angle.

    The existing Locate Point tool using the Traverse and Radial methods functionally does something similar, but must have 180 degrees added manually to the deflection angles to get the absolute angle.

    Allow stepped cap beam seats to be placed parallel to the girder on a skew.

    Allow each girder step to be placed parallel to the girder not perpendicular to abutment skew. For ITD it's common practice to have the cap steps be center between girder centerlines parallel.

    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...
