Improve "Create Terrain from Design Meshes" & "Graphical Filter" tool. Filter by Fence / Shape / Reference Clip / Level Display / Selection Set

When I first saw this tool I was so excited. I could drape the design meshes from top or bottom and create a terrain . Then I started using it and realize the tool may need some improvement because it processes everything in the file or reference ...

3D cut-in profile to carry the same line symbology present in the XS named boundaries

User expecting to be 3D cut should mimic the display style of the 3D view. Currently, the limitation is that a cross-section in ORD can only be cut between two lines, and not along a complex element. It should go inside the display style and let y...

Combining Properties Menus

It would be super helpful if I didn't have to search two different property menus for where to change specific properties. If the general properties menu and the ORD DU properties menu could be more centralized into one properties menu, this would...

Enhance Annotation Definitions (Add text frame option and associate leader line to text)

Currently when creating/using annotation groups, the annotation definition can place a leader line. But when the annotation is placed the leader line is not associated with the text so if I move the text the leader line does not move with it. Simi...

Invert Terrain Elevation

ASCII elevation data from hydrosurveys is delivered in positive depths making for an embankment instead of a channel. A function to multiply elevations by -1 would save a trip through Excel or a GIS program.

Restore tool Delete Triangle by Line - Edit Terrain - back to its original function of not being able to cross breaklines or add a dialog box for the option.

In SS4 on up to ORD 10.10.2, you could not delete a triangle on the interior side of a breakline. When a line was drawn, all triangles would be deleted until it got to the breakline. In ORD 10.12, it blows through the breakline and will delete int...

Ability to Copy Corridors and Parts of Corridors

Developing projects requires many iterations involving multiple alternatives. For simpler projects it may be feasible to manually duplicate a corridor but as corridors get more complex this method becomes more cumbersome and prone to error. When d...

Clip 2d geometry same as 3D corridorclip

When a corridor clip is applied, the 2D geometry is not affected by that corridor clip, only the 3d mesh is clipped. I would like an option to choose whether you'd also like to clip the 2D geometry.

Superelevation Reassign

Similar to the ability we have to redefine geometry and reassign corridors (like Complex Redefine or Corridor Reattach), a Superelevation Reassign tool would be very useful. For example, if we are evaluating 2 different alignments/profiles and wou...
