Creating a physical space for profiles

If profiles lived in a physical space that you could get to then you would be able to replace a profile without breaking references and creating a ton of rework. That is what we did in Inroads and it worked great. Now we are forced to use drawings...

Offset Alignment - Controlled by Station, Offset and Cross Slope.

An OFFSET ALIGNMENT / GEOMETRY CHAIN command would be a gamer changer for ORD. Most of our geometry including "edge of pavement", "curb" and "ditches" are controlled by station offset cross slope from a control line. Currently to create offset geo...

Flow Arrow from High to Low Point for any Civil/Linear Geometry

In placing drainage node to the carriageway or kerb/curb lines in 2D plan, it is useful to show the flow arrow from high point to low point for the drainage engineer. Currently, the flow arrow is only available in "Terrain", but not civil geometry...

Add .JXL file format

It would be nice if the Trimble Link Import op tion of ORD Survey would allow for .JXL file format to import.

Add latitude and longitude values to Report Browser

The raw-xml is missing Latitude and Longitude information when creating reports. InRoads had this capability, but it appears to be missing from OpenRoads.

Ability to generate aggregated quantity report for all components linked to a price list

As a road designer, I would like to be able to produce a report aggregating all quantities for all components for a project, items in this reporting being linked to a price list.With Item types and Reports we have ability to generate data, but for...

Add surface to multiple drainage profiles quickly & in batch

I would like to be able to select multiple pipe profiles in the drainage and utilities tab and right click to add a surface to all of them at once. This will save a considerable amount of time - instead of needing to open each profile model indivi...

civil cell variables with expressions and variations

When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...

Save dialogue window sizes

Many dialogue windows don't open up with the best proportions to see the data and they don't save the proportions after they have been edited. It gets tiring having to edit the proportions of dialogues to see the data as needed every single time I...

When using the Set Feature Definition tool on non-civil geometry, have it include Item Types attached to Feature Definition.

Currently, when using the Set Feature Definition tool to assign a Feature Definition to a non-civil element (ie a dumb MSCE line) it does not include the Item Types that are attached to the Feature Definition.
