We create typical cross sections as part of our plan set. I've seen guidance from Bentley on how to use different parts of the 3D corridor model to cut cross sections in specific places and then use those cross sections as the typical cross sectio...
Would be beneficial to be to add overlaps to profile named boundaries so they match the plan sheets. Would like for this to be an automated option when creating profile named boundaries based from the Plan sheet named boundaries.
Add a visual graphic notation when you edit a template drop
We currently have visual graphics to show us a KEY STATION or a POINT CONTROL has been added to your corridor. A visual graphic or notation that a template drop has been edited would be a nice addition. Also, maybe add the ability to add a short n...
Offset Alignment - Controlled by Station, Offset and Cross Slope.
An OFFSET ALIGNMENT / GEOMETRY CHAIN command would be a gamer changer for ORD. Most of our geometry including "edge of pavement", "curb" and "ditches" are controlled by station offset cross slope from a control line. Currently to create offset geo...
Inroads allowed the user to toggle a tick mark, such as a plus symbol (+), to show the position of any survey point in the fieldbook. Very useful. ORD allows the toggling of many different attributes of a point by using Survey Decorators. Please a...

Choosing Feature Definitions is a frequently used feature in OpenRoads Designer. Especially in urban projects, switching between pavement types, curbs, placing signs, ...
You can name an element if drawn 1 at a time with tangents and arcs. But if you use Complex by PI you can't go back and name your elements to make it easier to report on your geometry.

Add the ability to calculate spread on two sides of a median barrier inlet
There are tens of thousands of barrier inlets on barrier medians throughout the US. Spread needs to be calculated on both sides, with the overall flow being added to the storm sewer system. Currently, the only way to do this is to create to halves...
