Chevron Pavement Marking Tool

This tool would replace the old Geopak tool that created chevrons with minimal effort. It's certainly possible to create chevrons by hand with the current tools, but it takes significantly more time for what was a pretty quick task. I think the ol...

Ability to View Alignment Stationing in Plan View in ConceptStation

I am requesting an enhancement to allow the user to view alignment stationing in plan view in ConceptStation. Currently, alignment stationing can only be viewed from the profile model. This would be helpful when adding PI points or modifying horiz...

Annotate Horizontal length along straight on profile

Requirement is to annotate horizontal length of straight on profile (station end - station start). It is available in frame annotation but not along linear so annotations don't match. Only the slope length can be annotated along the linear

XTR-Import for OpenRoads

From rail companies in Switzerland we receive their rail alignment in form of an .xtr file. This file includes geometry, station, cant, construction and destruction phase and turnout information. Currently the import of an XTR-file in OpenRoads is...

Quick Profile Transition application on fillet being part of complex element

When using Quick Profile Transition (QPT), we need ability to select (apply to) a fillet that is part of a complex element - similar to Alt option (to Pick Components of Complex) for Arc Between Elements > Simple Arc, when applying fillet at PI...

port all Regression tools from OpenRail to OpenRoads

There are some regression tools that were ported from openRail into openRoads in previous releases. However, they didn't port every regression tool. Most notably, they did not port the Vertical regression tools for creating a regressed profile. We...

Linear Template - the BSplines warning is not helpful

When you place a Linear Template on a splined element a warning is generated which requires user interaction to dismiss: "Warning: The base geometry selected for this corridor contains B-Spline elements for the horizontal Transitions. Consider rec...

Ability to lock profile when start stationing changes

Right now (2022 R1) if an alignment with a profile is extended in the start, the profile moves together with the start of the alignment. Two wishes: Possibility to lock the profile elements in their present position. Possibility to move the whole ...

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...

Project point elements to nearest XCs

A tool that projects point elements (drainage nodes, boreholes, signs, ...) to the nearest XCs. This could work using named groups just like the new shipped funcion: https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-1208?utm_source=idea_comment_ma...
