Add an automated slider button for the object spacing box.

For newer users a quick design option in the (Object Spacing box) for simpler signs would be great. We typically space lines of text using 1/2 to 3/4 of the text height used. If the program could do this automatically with a slider button that sho...

Terrain Display Option/Creation without Facet Smoothing

The way Openroads currently displays terrain models is not very defined. We need to have the option to create terrains without the use of Facet Smoothing so they will display similar to how InRoads does. I've attached a sample of an InRoads Terrai...

Profile Superelevation annotation based on Crossfall to a Linear feature

For almost all our projects we require very precise crossfall transitioning at tie-ins to existing and situations at ramps where we project crossfall from one carriageway to another. It is not practical for us to report crossfall and copy the valu...
