Ability to extend profile runs

I would like the ability to control the limits of the profile run in profile sheets which would also allow me to control the stationing without having to create a separate alignment and project the drainage run into the separate alignment.

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

Allow profile element selection in Project Profile to Element tool

I use Project Profile to Element when grading intersections, but often times the roadway centerline has multiple profile elements (similar to how InRoads had multiple vertical alignments). I could go to the alignment file, set active the one I wan...

Button to synchronize all template drops for all corridors & linear templates in a file

I'd like a tool that synchronizes all template drops in all corridors in a file, right now they have to each be manually selected in the explorer or on screen.

Ability to annotate slope between linear features in plan using the Civil Labeler

Ability to annotate the slope between two linear features in plan. Currently we can only annotate station and offset but it is very common for designers to check cross slopes.

Rectangle feature

Openroads Horizontal Geometry has lines, arcs, and circle features. Add a rectangular civil geometry element. This would be used for site grading (building pad), instead of drawing 4 individual civil geometry lines and complexing together, a recta...

Set Feature Definition - Use Active Feature Definition

Unlike many of the civil tools, the Set Feature Definition tool does not have an option to use active feature definition. This tool is commonly used with Match Feature Definition, which sets the active feature from selected element. Add option for...
