Modify the LLS part when placing a turnout.

Currently one could add an LLS part on a turnout. Unfortunately this is a standard value. Sometimes, when creating a horizontal geometry, it is necessary to ''shorten'' the LLS part (aka to place a fewer amount of long sleepers that a standard LLS...

Viewing preview annotation in profile frame annotation setup

Support UNC paths and writing a conditional in the OrganizationSetting.cfg file

MnDOT would like to set a network location for the standard libraries. This way every user gets the current design. OpenRoads SignCAD does not currently support UNC paths or writing a conditional in the OrganizationSetting.cfg file. It seems illog...

Implement a SWITCH/CASE function for item type expressions.

A SWITCH/CASE function would be easier to use than having to nest multiple IF functions.

Feature Lines Similar to Civil 3D

It would be nice to be able to graphically change elevation and slope of an element similar to feature lines in Civil 3D. Made it really quick to create break lines and grade areas without have to go into a profile view and create a vertical profi...

Point Control lock to to start and lock to end option should honor the corridor start and end limits

Actually , the lock to start and lock to end stations are defined by the start and end of alignment or feature the corridor it is based on. This makes the point control handles (in the 2d view) to be outside the corridor limits when the corridor i...

Add temporary/permanent button on civil analysis tool for placing graphic elements, or at least make them a graphic group to make removing them easier and more complete.

When I use the civil analysis tool, I sometimes place the displayed graphics (elevation, contour, triangle) into the drawing to have a record. The problem is when I am done with the graphic and want to remove them, I have to select each component ...

Retaining turnouts when horizontal alignments are dropped.

Currently when an alignment is dropped (no longer complex) all associated turnouts delete entirely and any geomtery created from these turnoiuts is also deleted. This is a big issue when optioneering, or when working on a scheme with lots of turno...
