Create multiple field books w/o terrain connecting

The ability to create multiple field books without the terrain connecting to each. This would be necessary when surveying multiple sites for one given road project. Currently, this is done by importing the data and then going to the survey setti...

Include Civil Labels in Pen Table Element Selection Criteria

A client requires background fill in certain annotation notes, which is controlled by a pen table definition. Civil Labels are not included as a selectable Element Selection Criteria Type in the pen table dialog. Text background is insufficient fo...

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...

label contours

label contours from inroads. there are times we have to label elevated "graphic" lines (aka contours and or benches without having a terrain model). was very helpful in inroads)

add distance between VPI to annotations in profiles

We need this to label our profiles optimally there'd be two values, once the horizontal (projected) distance and once the true (slanted) distance between to VPI's

Switching between referenced OBD models from an ORD file (after attachment).

If multiple bridge options are required, placing these options within the same dgn, but in separate models is a good practice. However, from ORD trying to change which OBD model is viewed (after it's been attached) does not work. It can be reattac...

Improve civil geometry constraints

Provide an option to quickly apply combined horizontal and vertical constraints to geometry elements. Where geometry lines (breaklines) intersect, they need to share a common elevation. The current process requires creating profile intersection po...

Place Civil Cell on Referenced Survey Feature

I would like the ability to place a civil cell along a survey feature that is referenced. We use a simple civil cell and cross sections to help compute existing pavement cross slopes.

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...
