Deed Boundary Tool Enhancement to Allow User to Establish Civil Rules on Created Shape/Boundary

Please consider adding a toggle to the Deed Boundary tool to create civil rules on the created shape, so this boundary can be a ruled boundary. The goal behind creating this as a ruled boundary is to give the user the option to update the created ...

Make profile active without opening profile view

It would be useful if some of the profile tools (quick profile from surface, profile from surface, etc) had a toggle to allow the profile to be set as active when it is created. This would make it more efficient in cases like when you need to crea...

Would like the ability to dynamically rotate a point feature.

We would like the ability to dynamically rotate a Point Feature, like we can do with a regular cell. Currently you can only enter a rotation by manually entering a number into the dialog box.

Parallel snap with Civil horizontal line

When creating centerline geometry you may need it to be parallel to outside boundaries like Right of Way. It would be convenient to be able to select that snap and use it like it works for MicroStation lines.

Point Table using MicroStation Table Styles

This would literally save large projects 100s of hours. Plus having points in tables that are ruled eliminates so many chances for errors. Other civil products have had this feature for years. Creating grading points on plans is so easy when table...

Add a “Chord" Toggle to all the Horizontal Curve Tools

To have to go to the Back Stage and select Settings ==> File ==> Design File Settings ==> Civil Formatting ==> Degree of Curve Method to change from an Arc Defined Curve to Chord Defined Curve is not a good workflow. In our State we ca...

Create a Geometric report

I would like to file an enhancement request to create a report displaying geometrics, stations and offsets. I have attached an email with the details on how we would like the information displayed in the report. Here’s the information from our me...

Parent -child relationship for polygon elements.

For RW acquisition. Item types would be inherent from the parent polygon and the ability to subtract area from Parent area to child area. Similar to a parcel element in Geopak.

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...

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...
