Start & End Item Type Expression for Extents

There should be an item type expression available that can provide the station to station extents of an element. Currently Bentley provides expressions for begin and end Station that correspond to the stationing at the beginning and end of the ele...

Generate Geometry Points with Deed Boundary Tool

RIght of Way take tables are required with named points. The normal workflow is to create points then origin point persist snap those elements creating the shape of the deed boundary to the points. In this way the legal reports show the point name...

Vertical geometry name to default to the horizontal geometry name

When I am doing feature modeling, such as intersections, I am creating a lot of features and profiles. I like things to have names so that I can easily identify them. In the workspace I am provided, the vertical geometry created for any given hori...

Separate vertical alignment model from horizonal geometry

One of my biggest pain points about ORD is if the horizontal geometry is dropped or broken, the vertical is consequently lost as well. This creates significant rework from a design and plan production standpoint (connected named boundaries). One w...

port all Regression tools from OpenRail to OpenRoads

There are some regression tools that were ported from openRail into openRoads in previous releases. However, they didn't port every regression tool. Most notably, they did not port the Vertical regression tools for creating a regressed profile. We...

Make the Geometry Copy Element tool clone / duplicate an element with all rules, etc.

Currently the Copy Element tool either fail to copy, copies elements incomplete (with missing Vertical Geometry) or does not reproduce rules as intended. The Geometry Copy Element command should effectively be a cloning tool that copies everything...

Snapping to arc/spiral end in profile

I would highly recommend to let user to snap to arc or spiral end in profile design. As you can see in the attached video I can't find intersection between profile alignment and vertical line that indicates arc/spiral end. To find intersection b...

Ability to append, join, or combine individual alignments and have it hold the sub alignment stationing, which would create station equations

In Geopak, we had the ability to take individual alignments and create an overall alignment from a subset of alignments and it would hold the individual stationing for each alignment, creating station equations. There is no way to do this in ORD u...

Users shouldn't have to hit "o" to target what you want to track

Why is this so slow and have to hit "o" to target what you want to track? We only care about the horizontal alignment and everything is built off that. That tool never works and it is just a constant fight. You will key say Sta. 500+00 and want le...
