At Linear Template corner, give option for PI or radius

When creating a liner template in a 90° corner or similar, the software would create an external tanget drop and not a rounded or chamfer one. See image attached, red flags what the result I want.

Snap control for 3d cut profile attachment

We need a snap setting to be active by default for self-attached attachments created by 3d cuts in profiles. Currently, the snap setting is set to off by default, which forces us to always turn it on manually in the attachments dialog, which is an...

Allow drainage nodes to show up as a cell (catch basin, headwall, end section) in profile view.

Drainage nodes show up in 2D as the cell/feature definition it is designated like an end section. It would be useful if that same feature would show up in the profile view for drainage profiles. It currently works for the "utilities" part of "Drai...

In Dynamic Sections, add width and cross slope for top of components to pop up window when hovering on components.

In SS2 InRoads Roadway Modeler we used to be able to see component slopes and widths in a pop-up window when hovering on components. This allowed us to quickly test that new point controls (or parametric constraints) were working as intended. It's...

Plan Sheet Named Boundary trimmed to fit within Sheet Boundary

When placing plan named boundaries, they do not take into account the sheet extents. In curves the boundaries can extend beyond the sheets. Users then would need to go adjust the named boundaries manually after sheet creation, which then causes ad...

OpenRoads Compress Options

There seems to be a need to Compress or purge out unused OpenRoads Feature Definition, Feature Symbology, Annotation Groups, Annotation Definitions. Compressing out unused "Stuff" in a MicroStation DGN file seem to be a normal function of MicroSta...

Copy multiple vertical elements

There's no option for copying multiple vertical elements - you can choose only one. My idea is to make the tool "Copy Vertical" similar to its equivalent in horizontal ("Copy Element") which allows to copy multiple elements.

Add skewed cross sections to Event Point Lists

Would be helpful to cut cross sections at an angle (i.e at a skewed culvert) similar to the custom cross section in InRoads.

Tool to Convert a Survey Linear to a Civil Geometry Complex Element or a MicroStation Linestring

There should be a one button command to convert a Survey Linear to a Civil Geometry Complex Element, a MicroStation Linestring, or individual MicroStation lines (User picks what they want). There are ways to accomplish this process now but most in...

Have Sight Visibility Lines also created as 2d Geometry so users can visually inspect/present failures

Currently sight distance analysis results are purely 3d extended objects that only offers a limited amount of functionality to determine visually why a failure is occurring. Adding 2d geometry representation to these objects would allow users to p...
