Create multiple long sections/profiles in the same model space

When creating profiles/long sections for track vertical geometry, ORD creates an individual sheet view and model view for each sheet. This creates a large amount of work when trying to bulk annotate or export long sections for drafting. It would b...

Import profile from element

We should be able to import profiles from elements. Because the profile drawing gives us usually like dwg file format, or like cad file format. if we draw an empty profile same dwg's profile scale on the screen, we can import dwg profiles very eas...

Civil Labeler "Leader Line" Lock Perpendicular

When a Leader Line and/or Border Frame are used the leader line should be (or is most often desirable) perpendicular to the geometry instead the perpendicular location being based on the text justification. When a Border Frame is used it really lo...

Additional Shoulder Rollover Slope Rows (3D Modeling - Templates)

I would like to make a suggestion on an improvement to template design for 3D Modeling in ORD. The Rollover values tool in superelevation template design is incredibly helpful, as it saves time by calculating the proper shoulder super rates accord...

Add an ExtendLine Code to Survey

This code would be similar to the DIST command, except it would allow the crews to add a taped distance to the last segment of a figure, which would extend that segment by that value. It would be similar to a DIST commend except instead of turning...

Fix DIST Command in Survey to InRoads Survey Operation

The DIST Command in Open Roads is almost identical to the InRoads version with one problematic exception. Open Roads uses the last two actual shots to determine the direction to turn the 90-degree angle to generate its points. InRoads would allow ...

Add Single Point Arc that is identical to InRoads Surveys

The Sigle Point Arc command in InRoads survey would create true tangent arcs from the incoming and outgoing tangents. The ArcSingle in Open Roads does not. This frequently results in bulges in figures if the uncoded PC and PT points are not perfec...

Add Extend Arc Code to Survey (as in InRoads Survey)

This code was found to be very useful in InRoads Survey and without it, we need to retrain the crews to change their workflows.

Add option to use only centerline radius for superelevation calculations

Provide an option or new method to use the centerline radius (instead of inside lane radius) for divided highways that use a Crown pivot method. The Divided Inside pivot method already does this for divided highways that pivot about the inside lan...
