As a Designer I want the ability to annotate point elevations and dimensions like we are able to in the drawing model cross-section so that checking the model during design before cutting sheets helps us.
I would like a tool to 'refresh' or 'update' all drawing model annotations at once. Instead of having to 'Remove Drawing Model Annotations', then run the 'Annotate Drawing Model' command, I would like an option for the program to do this in a sing...
It is cumbersome to delete Civil Labels and place new ones when a simple change is required. Similar to how Geopak Plan View Labeler worked, it would be ideal if you could edit a previously placed Civil Label. Also being able to match a Civil Labe...
Cross reference plan and profile sheet number annotation form Sheet Index
Add ability to cross reference the sheet numbers of plans that are in the sheet index. IE: referencing the profile sheet number on the plan sheet and vice versa.
Element Annotation - White Space Management (manage modification) for Lines
The Element Annotation is incredibly powerful (and fast) but the lack of ability to move the leader (as you can with the civil labeler) is a critical issue. Please add the ability to "stick" or snap the line to the text when the text is moved. The...
Line and Curve Tables for both Alignments and Parcels
Need tools for creating Line and Curve tables with smarts. Geopak D&C had a tool for creating line and curve tables. Why doesn't OpenRoads have tools for this? Needs to be smart so that as changes are made to the geometry the data in the table...
We need the ability to annotate component quantities on cross sections like you can the cut/fill volumes. Information could be pulled from the Quantities Report by Named Boundary.
Override annotation group for alignments only works in default model
For some projects I use multiple plan models per file and when I want to override the annotation group it only loads profile options when plan options are the ones in need.
We typically show labels with the leader attached to the top line of multiline text. As far as we can tell, civil labeler can only place the label in the center of the text block. Image shows what we need.
Need the ability to flood/fill the shape of the border selected (hexagon, rectangle, etc.) so there are no gaps / white space between text field and border.
