Enhancement to the Coordinate System Tool: Include the chosen coordinates to future sheet views and models
To improve time management and work productivity, I thought modifying the Coordinate System tool to add a feature that will apply the County/Coordinate System to all future sheets and models created in the file. Currently, when we use the 'CreateF...
Make the Drainage Catch Basin Grate Perimeter and Open Area variables reportable
Some DOTs require input of an exact values for catch basin grate open area for orifice flow and catch basin grate perimeter for weir flow. ORD would consider these as calculated values, not inputs. These are not ORD outputs and are hidden from the...
Allow Esri Shapefile Field Name to be longer than 10 characters
When exporting a drainage flex table in ESRI format, the default field names include names longer than 10 characters. This throws the error message: "The Esri Shapefile field name <Middle_Flow> for column <Flow (Middle)> cannot be long...
Add regression report tool for reporting against a control alignment
In Bentley Rail Track you could run a "Regression" report via Tools - XML Re
ports - Regression...
This was an invaluable way of reporting existing cants, sixfoots, etc. with the figures generated in line with a
'Control Track'.

Drainage module conduits and nodes data to be added to Cross section Frame
Road Cross section are able to display template, Design and existing terrain surface within the frame. But if theres drainage infrastructure there is no way of displaying that data within the frame it has to be done as a point annotation.
Offset Alignment - Controlled by Station, Offset and Cross Slope.
An OFFSET ALIGNMENT / GEOMETRY CHAIN command would be a gamer changer for ORD. Most of our geometry including "edge of pavement", "curb" and "ditches" are controlled by station offset cross slope from a control line. Currently to create offset geo...
Annotation : Annotation be added to display the degree of curve in chord definition
In a previous update, the plan annotation option to display arc length in chord or arc definition was added. It is imperative that a plan annotation be added to display the degree of curve in chord or arc definition as well. Until this happens we ...
In previous products, the user was able to drawing a pattern lines by inputting stations and offset lengths (for an individual station or for the entire alignment length). The new process of creating pattern lines with Civil AccuDraw is a massive ...
We need the ability to add thinning option to the LandXML Terrain Import like when we import Terrain from Point Cloud, and it gives you the options to filter the points using the TIN or TILE method.
The ability to run a streamlined version of OpenRoads that only loads the microstation portion of the program for simpler drafting tasks would speed things up considerably. Similar as is done with Autodesk Civil3d, where there is the option provid...
