Point Control lock to to start and lock to end option should honor the corridor start and end limits

Actually , the lock to start and lock to end stations are defined by the start and end of alignment or feature the corridor it is based on. This makes the point control handles (in the 2d view) to be outside the corridor limits when the corridor i...

ONE DIALOG BOX TO MAKE SETUP

ONE DIALOG BOX TO MAKE SETUP. SO YOU CAN SET ANNOTION GROUP, FEATURE SYMOLOGIES, FEATURE DEFINITIONS, ELEMENT TEMPLATE AND SET LEVEL OF TEXT FOR AUTOMATIC ANNOTATIONS. REALLY CUMBERSOME TO HAVE TO GO TO SO MANY OTHER PLACES TO SETUP FOR ONE CODE

Vertical Event Points

There use to be the ability to create Vertical Event Points. This appears to have been removed in that the Event Point List is now singular and tied to the Horizontal Alignment. The old capability (now removed) allowed things to be annotated in th...

Checkbox to turn on-/off alignments

It would be useful to be able to turn on-/off single alignments. Perhaps with a checkbox in the "OpenRail Model" section in the explorer, just like the ones in the "Feature definition" section in OpenRail Standards. This could probably be handy wi...

Model a straight bridge on a curved alignment

The ability to create a straight bridge when the alignment transitions from tangent to a horizontal curve on the bridge. Currently the deck ends are controlled by the bridge skew from a radial line at the end of the deck rather than from the tange...

Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment

Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...

Geometry Connector: automatically use turnout radius when connecting an arc to a turnout

When using Geometry Connector to connect turnouts, it is often that we must extend the last arc of the turnout. Because the arc is in the turnout we cannot extend it. Instead, we must add an arc of same radius. It would be nice that in such situat...

Retaining turnouts when horizontal alignments are dropped.

Currently when an alignment is dropped (no longer complex) all associated turnouts delete entirely and any geomtery created from these turnoiuts is also deleted. This is a big issue when optioneering, or when working on a scheme with lots of turno...

The use of regression line/points to report lift information in profiles

Currently there is not functionality to annotated lift information using regression line/points. Have you use another design alignment (in this case it would the exisitng alignment). It would be great to be able to use one data source to report sl...

Turn feature definitions on/off in a reference

If feature definitions are turned off in a file, it doesn't show up when reference and it's not possible to even view without going back into the file. It would be helpful to have the option to turn on feature defintions the same way levels can be...
