Default Alignment Start Stationing

Include an ability to have a default Start Stationing for an alignment. It would save time (and improve consistency) for several of our alignments where we'd like the default stationing set at 10+00. I imagine many other users could appreciate thi...

Add a "Description" entry to the Geometry Line Between Points Command

Allows the User to provide a Description for Geometry Lines; it should match the Geometry Point which already has a Description field.

Adding Japanese Cubic Parabola

OpenRail Designer seems to have Japanese Sine spiral type added from the formula used in Power RailTrack. However, there seems to be nothing similar to Japanese Cubic Parabola, which is based on a different formula from Japanese Sine.

Project Geometry Using Active Feature Definition

When projecting various 2d geometry or 3d linear geometry the user is first required to set the active feature definition in the feature definition toolbar so that the project geometry shows up on the correct level, ect. It would speed things up i...

Cell in GC will have additional properties for IFC

Placed cells with Generative components on alignment which have assigned item types as additional properties. Those properties will be later exported to IFC. Now the additional properties are not shown in GC only in ORD.

Improve civil geometry constraints

Provide an option to quickly apply combined horizontal and vertical constraints to geometry elements. Where geometry lines (breaklines) intersect, they need to share a common elevation. The current process requires creating profile intersection po...

Add option to choose between a vertical offset and a parallel offset for profiles

The profile offset transition has the ability to do an vertical offset of (a part of) an profile. This is a vertical offset. When the line is horizontal, the parallel offset is constant. Please add an option to choose between a vertical offset and...
