Flow Arrow from High to Low Point for any Civil/Linear Geometry

In placing drainage node to the carriageway or kerb/curb lines in 2D plan, it is useful to show the flow arrow from high point to low point for the drainage engineer. Currently, the flow arrow is only available in "Terrain", but not civil geometry...

Point Control lock to to start and lock to end option should honor the corridor start and end limits

Actually , the lock to start and lock to end stations are defined by the start and end of alignment or feature the corridor it is based on. This makes the point control handles (in the 2d view) to be outside the corridor limits when the corridor i...

Cross section view should show Point name of a template drop

when using the point control function. It is expected to see the names of points of a template drop in the cross section view. This would be utilized when using the point control function.

civil cell variables with expressions and variations

When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...

Single Offset Partial/Entire Element creates complex elements with the ability to add/remove tapers

One of the factors prohibiting the use of civil geometry in plan production is that it can often feel cumbersome to implement design changes without 'breaking' your previous work. Let's say you have an intersection designed using civil geometry, a...

Civil Labeler with Null Target

Have the ability to create Civil labeler with a null Target. This will give user the ability to create label for features/lines to use from one tool and one source. Further enhancement would be able use an expression that would change the label(ca...

UI: Move Terrain Labeling Tools from Terrain tab to Drawing Production tab.

It is not clear that the Terrain Labeling tools are under Terrain when they are a Plans Production tool.

Improve the dwg drawings for profile and XS

A lot of time our employements ask for dwg XS, profile and plan drawings, I consider very useful a set of settings ti create them without issues.

Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment

Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...

Add shear stress calculation (based on HEC-15) to conduit data.

Conduit data has flow data but not shear force data which would help design the channel lining needed to protect from ditch/channel erosion. https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/engineering/hydraulics/pubs/05114/05114.pdf
