horizontal regression for points

in Inroads there was an option to select points to put in regression in geometry to create a best fit alignment. You could then do a single element regression analysis afterwards and it would give you the best fit line and how far in either direct...

Add Support for 3D Cut on Closed Alignments

Currently, The 3D cut does not work on the closed alignment's profile model. This is required specially in the case of Roundabouts. We can not create a 3D cut on the Roundabout profiles.

Add a warning prompt before deleting a line if it has elements drawn in the profile view.

This warning would be useful to avoid loosing work done in profile views.

Define Station (similar to Internal Station) from defined alignment

It is often that alignment starting from a turnout is using mainline stationing at toe of the turnout. So it would be useful to have a method to define station at first or last point of Alignment-A from Alignment-B, and ruled.Maybe not limited to ...

Symbol to easily display which profile is active

When multiple profiles are drawn in one alignment or civil feature, the user has to hunt for which one is set active. If they are close to each other and/or the same feature definition this is quite tedious! It would be helpful if there was a way ...

Be able to view on & off "Name, Field Code, Elevations, & Descriptions" for Geometry Points

I can view on & off "Name, Field Code, Elevations, & Descriptions" for Survey Points but for Geometry Points you have to annotate text graphics into your model. Seems to me that you should be able to view those the same weather it's a Geom...

Graphically edit the profile by variable slope

It would be good to have the option to drag the start and end stations of the profile by variable slope from element in the profile window. Similarly as the partial offset tool in plan. At the moment the user needs to update values in the properti...

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...
