Draw Clear Zone Tool in Plan/3d

Draw Clear Zone tool in Plan/3D that reads from AASHTOW roadside design tables for offsets and slopes from the model.

Better Side Slope Annotation tool

Plan annotation for side slopes is something really difficult to do in plan drawings. First, there is only one workflow using Annotation Groups for 3D elements (3D side slope annotation is the full name). This make so that I can`t use my elements ...

Make editing catchment areas more user friendly

When you initially create a drainage area from a shape, it creates 'smart' vertices that you can grab and move with the cursor. However, after the initial catchment shape is created, the only way to add additional vertices is using the "Insert Ver...

LBS add a special distribution factor for deflection (AASHTO Art. 2.5.2.6.2)

Under commentary C2.5.2.6.2: "For straight girder system bridge, this is equivalent to saying that the distribution factor for deflection is equal to the number of lanes divided by the number of beams"

Improvement of the "Geometry Connector" to simplify for the user

Suggested improvements: Automatically fill in the correct radius of transition curves/clothoids. Make an option somewhere (civil design file settings?) to select if you want to give transition curve values "by length" or "by constant". If you choo...

Automate the creation of plan-plan sheets with different views of the same station range.

We often do sheets where the same station range is shown, plan on top and bottom, but they have different information. For instance, the top plan view might be a staking overview where the bottom plan might be a jointing diagram. Both have the sam...

Insert Vertex tool

Tool that adds vertex at chosen interval to a selected element segments. The "facet" tool is supposed to achieve this, but it is not designed to respect original element vertexes. So it ends up modifing the element path. The tool should work insid...

Enable 3D annotation from 2D annotation

It would be advantageous to be able to link 3D annotation to 2D annotation. In order to be able to create stationing as 3D text on an alignment in a 3D model, you currently need to do it manually. It would be desirable if you could link a 2D anno...

Line and Curve Tables for both Alignments and Parcels

Need tools for creating Line and Curve tables with smarts. Geopak D&C had a tool for creating line and curve tables. Why doesn't OpenRoads have tools for this? Needs to be smart so that as changes are made to the geometry the data in the table...

Add Ability to Place Civil Label With View Independent Setting When Using Leader in Civil Labeler

I am needing to enable the View Independent setting in Civil Labeler on text favorites using leaders. For example, I am using text favorites in Civil Labeler (that require leaders) to annotate existing right-of-way and property lines information a...
