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.

Create corridor without vertical

Having the ability to create a corridor without needing a vertical can be helpful when a project involves widening. With widening, I wouldn't need a profile along the CL, but instead it would be along the EOP. Point controls can be used to attach ...

Ability for Corridor Horizontal Parametric Constraints to be applied with Reverse Cubic Curves

In our legacy software we could quickly and easily apply a reverse cubic curve tapers for our designs without having to create Geometry and have our lane edges follow that - noting that the Geometry is not actually the required reverse cubic curva...

Be able to view on & off "Name, Field Code, Elevations, & Descriptions" for Geometry Points

I can view on & off "Name, Field Code, Elevations, & Descriptions" for Survey Points but for Geometry Points you have to annotate text graphics into your model. Seems to me that you should be able to view those the same weather it's a Geom...

Update "Coordinate Grid" tool to allow more options

The "Coordinate Grid" tool needs to be updated to provide more options of the coordinate text placement allowing offsets & rotation etc. There should be, at a minimum, the same amount of control as we had with the InRoads tool "Place Coordinat...

Bring back Active Chain Control or Similar Tool

In GeoPak, the Active Chain Control tool was very useful for selecting a particular chain or alignment and having the location information (station, offset, etc.) be display in a dialogue box. The location information would live track with the loc...

Graphically edit the profile by variable slope

It would be good to have the option to drag the start and end stations of the profile by variable slope from element in the profile window. Similarly as the partial offset tool in plan. At the moment the user needs to update values in the properti...

Retain item type on 3D cells exported from Points Feature Definition

If there is an item type attached to a Point Feature Definition, it is not retained when the Point is exported as a standard 3D MicroStation cell. The metadata is only retained to the 2d element, not the 3d. In the case of a mesh (from a component...

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...
