Fix/Bring back "Place Cell along Element" tool.

This tool was very useful for placing cells such as "raised pavement markers" at set distance intervals along very long stretches. Without this tool, plans involving tasks such as these, especially in transportation plans, take much longer.

Simplify Civil Cell tool

Civil cells contain horizontal and vertical geometry. In practice, typically the vertical design is unique for each placement instance of design features that could utilize civil cells, even though the horizontal geometry is similar or varies para...

Horizontal and vertical geometry - edit vertical elevations/profile in plan view, improve geometry snap rules/constraints.

We have used the horizontal and vertical geometry tools to create terrain models for site design of rest areas. We have found this to be very inefficient and time consuming. For example, the rest areas typically have sidewalks that vary in width, ...

Allow manual input of acre area when manually defining a catchments subareas

Currently when manually defining a catchments subareas we are only able to hard code in a percentage of the total drainage area instead of the acreage of that subarea (see attached file). This causes us to have to manually calculate the percentage...

In OpenRoads Designer Explorer, add a feature list for terrain features, similar to the new "point filter" dialog.

Currently features that make up a terrain can be viewed, added, or removed graphically. Would like to be able to see all terrain features in a table or list view, similar to point filter list. In addition, be able to add and remove or temporarily ...

Ability to update profile drawing model element annotation without removing full model annotation.

Currently, the software does not respond to removing element annotation in the profile drawing models. Instead, the entire model needs to have annotations removed, re-annotated, and then the individual elements need to be annotated.

Add ability for Custom Line Style to place point feature on the curve in survey

The user has created a line style that just shows the points (Begin, End, and Vertices). The line works fine with a straight line but does not show vertices along a curve. The line style is used in the Survey for the center line data shots. If the...

Add ability to modify annotation group from reference without overrides

In 21 R2, the capability was added to override an annotation group. This appears the only way to be able to modify a local anno group from a referenced dgn. I would advocate to add the ability to override anno groups in the dialog when creating sh...

Template Library - List Points and Components without Feature Definitions

In the Active Template pane of the Template Library, we are able to see Point Feature Definitions and Component Feature Definitions that have been assigned. However, we are not able to easily see all Points or Components which have no Feature Defi...

Geometry Builder Interior Angles

We often get plats that have interior angles and distance for the parcels, tracts, etc. It would be nice if this option was in geometry builder.
