Horizontal and vertical geometry - edit vertical elevations/profile in plan view, improve geometry snap rules/constraints.

We have used the horizontal and vertical geometry tools to create terrain models for site design of rest areas. We have found this to be very inefficient and time consuming. For example, the rest areas typically have sidewalks that vary in width, ...

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...

Geometry Builder Interior Angles

We often get plats that have interior angles and distance for the parcels, tracts, etc. It would be nice if this option was in geometry builder.

Allow entering a degree of curve (d 00^00'00") as the Radius of the Alignment Table Editor.

When creating curves, an ORD user is allowed to enter a degree of curve (d 00^00'00") as the Radius. Put the same functionality in the Alignment Table Editor.

Geometry - Copy Chain Parallel Command

There was a command in Geopak called Copy Chai n Parallel that was very useful in creating offsets of survey chains, and creating new points at constant delta elevations. We are looking for the same function to be added in OpenRoads Designer.

Geometry Points ruled by Name to allow users to move Points by importing ASCII

Ruling point import by name would add some powerful automation to the software. If a user could import a Point via ASCII and have any existing Points with the same name update (while maintaining the same object) this would allow things like posts ...

Profiles and Sections with no sheets

I am going back to the SS2 versions. I would like to see an option to produce 1 profile for the entire alignment. Give it the station range and produce the profile in Microstation with an option to annotate The same for Cross-Sections. Station Ran...

horizontal regression for points

in Inroads there was an option to select points to put in regression in geometry to create a best fit alignment. You could then do a single element regression analysis afterwards and it would give you the best fit line and how far in either direct...

Option to set station limits while creating Curvature Diagram.

I want option to set a station limits while creating Curvature Diagram so that we can focus on a very specific area instead of the whole geometry.
