Add option to use only centerline radius for superelevation calculations

Provide an option or new method to use the centerline radius (instead of inside lane radius) for divided highways that use a Crown pivot method. The Divided Inside pivot method already does this for divided highways that pivot about the inside lan...

Add extra Coloum which shows Delta Value in Geometry Report at PC, PT, No Curve PI, SC and CS

Alerts users to the existence of "kinks" in horizontal alignments. These "kinks" are where the back and ahead tangents at PCs and PTs of curves are not on the same bearing. There is a small tolerance built in to eliminate rounding errors.

Allow user to define width of superelevation section graphic.

Currently, the graphic representing the superelevation section is hard coded to use the radius of the smallest curve in the alignment. If the radius of the smallest curve is 50 meters or more, the section width is hard-coded to 50 meters. If t...

Turn on/off elements in the main dgn will change on all the sheets.

It is expected to turn on and off elements in the container file and it will reflect those changes on all the profile sheet models.

Automatically calculate values when inputting into property fields

When inputting numbers into property fields, ORD can automatically calculate them for you. Example: Survey field team shoots the top of casting elevation of a manhole at 500ft, then shoots again for a bottom invert of the manhole but only leaves a...

Create 3D by slope to terrain needs to have the option for the fill slope to be positive and vise versa for cut slope

When projecting a line to a terrain currently the only option for fill is down and cut is up. This needs to be a user selectable option. There are many cases where the proposed surface is above the existing ground yet the fill projection needs to ...
