Choosing Feature Definitions is a frequently used feature in OpenRoads Designer. Especially in urban projects, switching between pavement types, curbs, placing signs, ...
Simplifying Retaining Wall Construction: A Wingwall-Inspired Approach for Bridge Design
When the bridge needs a long “wingwall”, it break two part – a wingwall which is built with the abutment, and the rest part I call it “Retaining wall”. Is it possibly to make this retaining wall as easy as wingwall? That means like put the wingwal...
Provide ability to place a 3D sign panel in a design model with the size and design from the sgn file. Transoft's Guidesign program has this ability as an example.
Say if I had pre-cast units (say rectangular for ease of the idea), you can see the coordinates of the 4 bottom corners (or other named points) of the pre-cast unit if I click on it. This would show up in model space view as shown: https://imgur.c...
Civil Labeler - XS Label height difference between centerline and curb or other key-point
We need ability to label height difference between centerline and curb or other key-point in our type XS. Or ability to label curb or other key-point height relative to centerline.
Include the slope of a terrain into the OpenRoads Modelling/Horizontal/Place Point command from the Geometry command as in Drainage and Utilities/Layout/Place Node.
This would then allow the placement of items that need to be on a slope in an OpenRoads model without filling up the file with a lot of drainage data. An example of this a crash barrier impact attenuator.
Currently there is a menu option to unmerge points for components, it would be nice to just unmerge a single point from both components and not all the points.
Create Terrain from reprojected reference file elements
The terrain creation tools don't work well when using elements from reference files that are reprojected from other coordinate systems. This seems to be true for many of the terrain creation tools. Some tools don't allow the elements from the repr...
I would like to have possibility to turn on static grid in geometry profile view. Something like the ability to set the main grid and minor grid intervals in the geometry profile view in the same way like it is done in drawings and sheets and make...
End Conditions automatically include an interval at the point in which cut/fill meet.
I'm surprised ORD doesn't automatically include an interval at the point in which cut slope becomes fill slope or vice verse. MX did a great job at this but without this function earthwork slopes aren't correct and give strange results. It's not p...
